This document contains the radar speed-measuring device performance specifications developed under an Interagency Agreement with the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Office of Law Enforcement Standards. This document supersedes the Model Performance Specifications for Police Traffic Radar Devices (DOT-HS-806-191), March 1982 and all subsequent revisions. By defining minimum performance requirements and verification procedures, this technical document establishes a base line for acceptable traffic radar speed- measuring device performance. Citizens, courts, and law enforcement officers should be assured that those radar speed-measuring device models, determined by test to comply with these specifications, will provide the high-quality service they require. Radar equipment buyers should use these performance specifications as a model to develop purchasing criteria. It is recommended that these specifications be incorporated into procurement documents requiring that devices offered for purchase meet, as a minimum, these specifications. (Author/publisher)
