Citizen Radar / Traffic Forum

Date: August 16, 2024

Time: 4:00PM - 6:00PM

Location: 200 N Halcyon Rd, Arroyo Grande CA, 93420

Have you ever wondered how speed limits are determined in California, how police radar/LIDAR works, or wanted to test your ability to accurately guess how fast cars are actually driving?

Join the Arroyo Grande Police Department on Friday, August 16, 2024, from 4 PM to 6PM for a “crash course” in speed enforcement laws and procedures.
We’ll go through a hands-on exercise showing you how to use an actual police radar device. The group will then take a brief walk to a nearby street where participants can test one another’s ability to visually estimate the speed of passing vehicles.

This will also present an opportunity to ask the Traffic Unit any traffic-related questions or voice concerns.

The course is free, limited to 25 residents of Arroyo Grande.

Attendee Requirements.

• No more than two attendees per household.

• This is an in-person live event, not available for remote participation.

• Ages 16+

• Students under age 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
