Can police radar work both ways coming and going away?
The Pembroke Police Department uses Doppler radar, both stationary and moving. Our stationary radar can pick up vehicles traveling towards the radar unit or going away. So don t speed up after you pass an officer using radar or he/she may surprise you. We also have moving radar that monitors vehicles as they approach the patrol vehicle while moving on the roadways.
