I thought that the units were tied into the car spedometer to adjust for police
car speed.  Shouldn't that work?

Besides, with the narrow angle, more precise aim would indicate that stationary

Now, since it's optical, it should be possible to use irregular matte finishes
and honeycomb materials to inhibit proper returns.  The Stealth mobile lives!
