    I've been told that in Calif, if you get a speeding ticket in the mail...one that wasn't issued by a police officer that you actually signed, don't bother paying it. The state has the burden of proof you were the one driving and without the verification from the police officer and your signature, they can't meet that burden of proof.

      Its purpose is to provide different types of electrical signals in order to "shock" the heart out of an irregular rhythm and into a regular rhythm. A very common misconception is that they are for starting a heart that is no longer beating, they don't work like that. I guess you could consider it as stopping your heart and restarting it, but I think a better way to describe is artificially forcing a new rhythm.

  • @Luzarioth
    @Luzarioth Рік тому +13

    When it comes to the speed, you can guestimate the speed you would need,
    Let's say:
    The distance between the camera and the point where it measures speed is 100 meters.
    The camera reaction time is 0.5 seconds (this is a rough estimate).
    The speed limit is 60 km/h (which is 16.67 m/s).
    Maximum Speed = 100 meters / (0.5 seconds + 0.5 seconds) = 100 meters / 1 second = 100 m/s
    To convert this to kilometers per hour:
    Maximum Speed = 100 m/s * (3600 seconds/hour) / 1000 meters/kilometer = 360 km/h
    360 km/h * 0.621371 mph/km/h ≈ 223.7 mph
    And that is with 1 second total delay, which sounds waaaaaay to much, so in reality the speed needed would be even higher.

    • @HappyBeezerStudios
      @HappyBeezerStudios Рік тому

      Pretty much getting hit by the radar but being outside the view of the camera when it snaps.
      But the speed of sound is roughly 343 m/s or 1234 km/h or 767 mph. So just a bit over 3 times the speed of the 0.5 second example.

    Since the camera is made to get someone speeding, it seems obvious that they were designed to catch you at 100 mph. It would see useless as a speed camera if it couldn’t catch you speeding…. Just my initial thoughts before watching it all.

  • @jocax188723
    @jocax188723 6 місяців тому +1

    I think the only way to beat it through speed is to go above the set range for the radar. Obviously, they can't have it dialled too high, or stuff like low flying aircraft could trip the camera. The threshold being 'anything high enough to reasonably not be a speeding car' depends heavily on the programmer, and any change to that is a simple fix.

      There was another episode/clip where they explained this. The laws in the UK were (are?) a bit different - the camera had to get two photos of the speeding car. In the USA, though, one photo is a conviction.
      Then they went for Ludicrous Speed by using a dragster with a jet engine!
