Concerning traffic speed monitoring by Aircraft,?

no jurisdiction can afford to 24 hour, 7 day week aircraft monitoring. signs placed, let know there might aircraft monitoring speed limits. in california, instance, there teams of highway patrol officers in aircraft, motorcycles , patrol cars travel different sections of state's road ways. may spend few days, monitoring highway, , then, move on part of system.

if ever travel through area , see three, 4 or 5 chp units within few minutes, know going on.

way done aircraft watches out vehicles appear moving faster of other traffic. then, timing vehicle passes specially measured markers on shoulder of road, can pretty accurate speed rate car. officer in aircraft radios ground units, stop speeder , issue citation, using measured rate of speed aircraft.

next time driving roadway marked signs aircraft monitoring, on shoulder broad white line, painted perpendicular road way. when spot one, will, see another, 1 mile later.

how work? how citation issued if found speeding? use aircraft as see aircraft symbles on road? thanks.
