Speed Monitoring
The Lago Vista Police Department has purchased several radar trailers in 2017 after response to the community's growing demand. These trailers serve as portable, self-contained speed display units. They are equipped to measure and display the speeds of approaching vehicles while indicating the designated speed limit for a specific area.
The introduction of these radar trailers has been met with widespread acclaim from the community, as they have proven to be practical tools in addressing traffic concerns. By providing real-time feedback on vehicle speeds, the radar trailers help to promote safe driving practices and encourage compliance with speed limits.
The acquisition of these radar trailers by the Lago Vista Police Department underscores their commitment to enhancing public safety and improving community relations through innovation and proactive measures.
