Do radar guns give you the benefit of the doubt?
My theory is that the fastest you can be clocked is your true speed. But you would have to be heading directly into the radar gun for this to happen. At any other angle, the vector returning to the gun would only be the cosine of that angle time your speed.
Picture a car traveling perpendicular to the gun. Wouldn’t the speed read out zero? So take that at every angle in between perpendicular and straight out.
Does this seem right?
Nothing is absolute. Radar is based on probabilities and is always subject to some error. Manipulating rf signals is possible.
In theory, an emitter (jammer) with the correct doppler (and maybe code) with a larger signal than your vehicle’s return can easily create a false doppler reading (lower or higher).
