No. With police officers in motion, it would appear that cars would be going slower. Say that a car is going 50 MPH, and you are going 45 MPH. Eventually the vehicle wil be ahead of you. Now say you are a police officer with radar. If you test this car, it will appear (on radar) that the 50 MPH car is only going 5 MPH, thus to get the accurate speed, you must be going 0 MPH.

Disagree. The original police radar required a stationary unit. Radar is use for the past 30 years is capabable of adding or deducting the speed of the police car from the observed speed. It does not require that the police car be in one fixed spot.
Added: The second cotributor is correct. I seriously doubt that any of the old radar units are still in operation much less certifiable as accurate. ALSO: the term "radar" is a commonly used by the the public to describe ALL police speed-clocking devices. Any of these can be calibrated to be used while the vehicles are in motion.
i don't the answer
The answer, both technologically and legally, is "No". Most modern in-car Police radar systems can work while the vehicle is moving.
A radar that the police use to detect stuff.

Doppler Radar
The Escort Radar Detector scans for the radio frequency waves of most police department speed guns. These speed gun frequencies can be detected for about a mile before actually seeing the police officer.
There is a device called a radar detector, but it will only detect a radar signal, not police in general.
Yes!!! Radar uses its own emitter. To the receiver it is always night until the transmitter is tuned on. Turning on the transmitter is like turning on a flashlight.
It is not a requirement to show RADAR readings in Illinois.
No. No. RADAR doesn't work that way. Right now, dogs are the hi-tech solution of choice for detecting the presence of contraband drugs in vehicles.
Having a radar detector will alert you when a Police Car with its speed radar is near. The Radar Detectors will produce an audible signal alerting you of this, and will do so far in advance of when you are able to see the Police Car.
Yes. The glass does not affect the radar.
