If a road going out this weekend will be interested to know that the five helicopters equipped with radar Pegasus are already operational. 18 percent of cars controlled by him were reported, five times more than land.

Coinciding with the movements on the occasion of the Festivity All Saints, DGT has announced that it will launch five helicopter radar “Pegasus” acquired in 2013, and so far only they worked three. From the DGT they say we will go to the surveillance on secondary roads.

Service sheet helicopter radar system is flawless, It is more effective and faster captures excess. Since it was launched in March 2013, more than 3,000 offenders have been denounced by him for speeding, representing almost 18 percent of the monitored. Note that the average percentage of one land is just over 3 percent. And they were not small excesses, the average speed at which drivers circulating the accused was more than 30 km / h the pathway. Has ability to measure speeds up to 360 km / h, the greatest excess picked up by the Pegasus has been 242 km in a way to limit to 120, and a limited road 195 to 100. In a way limit to 90, the greater excess detected was 199 km / h.

The drivers have lost “thanks” to the Pegasus, 2,680 points speeding, 46 of them this meant speeding them 6 points because it was a very serious infringement.

Like the three that were already underway, new radars have two cameras, a panorama, which facilitates the tracking and capturing speed, and other detail, equipped with a telephoto lens, that can read vehicle registration, He is able to read from a flying height of 1,000 feet, more than 300 meters and a distance in a straight line with the controlled vehicle 1 kilometer.

virtually undetectable

Discover these ‘predators’ air is quite complicated, because although it may seem otherwise, they are not heard from inside the vehicle. Their sound in principle quite audible, is hidden by the engine noise and isolation inside our vehicle. Perhaps you can see it in the distance, but if it is on or behind you, virtually undetectable.
