mobile radars, it’s not yesterday. Appeared in mid 60, the first on-board radars were installed Peugeot 403 station wagon. Despite its timid beginnings, mobile radar has become increasingly popular over the years a real weapon against speeding.

End of career for Mesta 210c

in 2003, is founded in France Automated control of sanctions (THIS IS IT). It is based on three principles: the constant presence of control devices, the systematic and rapid sending of fines, and the registration of the amount of fines before any possible disputes. After creating a CSA in France, you have, c 2006, deployment of automatic radars 210 seats AND Seats 210cbetter known as radar “owl”.
Since 2006, these radars are still there in activity on the territory, although the latter are no longer produced since 2016. They can be stationary, clearly visible in a gray box or mobile in the hands of law enforcement agencies.
However, the Mesta 210c experiences a decline in popularity after a recent appearance radar machines and autonomous radars. So it’s time to replace them. Because as you will see, it exists in the market new generation radars which are to replace the now old Mesta 210c.

Radar 2.0

Instead of “Owl” we have ETFO for Equipment with Earth with Strengths with’order. The latter will have to meet the specifications accurate They must have the ability to operate in a closed vehicle trunk, on the curb, and from a bridge. These other radars will also have to work several functions. Features that will make them formidable. They will be able to detect speeding on multi-lane roads in both directions, will work day and night and should be equipped with an infrared searchlight.
That’s why these radars will be formidable AND more effective than the radars currently operating on our roads. These mobile radars of the new generation have common points with city radars. They are actually the same devices. They are either placed on a tripod Or installed in the cabin. The only difference is the software they embed.
There are many manufacturers offering new generation radars that some believe are were already used on our roadsbut in a completely different configuration.

But who will win the tender?

For manufacturers of this type of products, this is simply a godsend. Therefore, it is not surprising that several of them are on board. As we have just noted, some of the latest generation radars are already in use on the ground.
You have Mesta Mobile from Idemia which is a mobile version of city radars installed on Marseille AND Toulouse. There is also Vitronic PoliScan FM1, which is installed in the radar of the construction site. Or even T-seriesa radar that is not approved in France but the company that manufactures it Sensys Gatsoinstalled his system Millia in radar cars driving in France. However, there is a model that is expected to replace the owl. It Compass from the manufacturer Pariflex which has just been deployed in New Caledonia. Four devices are installed on the roads of the island. The latter contains a remote sensing system capable of identification five speeding tickets per second. If this test is conclusive New Caledoniait is entirely possible that the Compass will arrive in mainland France.

Meanwhile, for this or that model to be spread throughout the territory in the hands of law enforcement agencies, the government must make a decision. To be continued !
