Depends on the officer and the road. I was talking to an officer I used to work with while he was running a "speed trap" near my house on a busy local road. He could pick them up through the trees before they came around the curve. He know from the "angle speed" what he would read with a "head on" radar shot. The ones that were going only a little fast and slowed didn't get stopped. He just said, "thats what I am here for, to slow them down". The ones that didn't slow down and the ones going real fast that did slow down got tickets.
Your milage may vary ....
