Book Synopsis THE COMPLETE BOOK ON SPEED ENFORCEMENT by : Kevin M. Morrison
Download or read book THE COMPLETE BOOK ON SPEED ENFORCEMENT written by Kevin M. Morrison and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this unique book is to give the reader a thorough understanding of speed enforcement concepts along with the devices that measure speed and, by means of interesting applications, to prepare them for their implementation in their professional careers. The text starts with a basis for the concept of speed in scientific terms and explores the concepts of speed as they relate to energy and work. The book also investigates both the negative and positive effects that various speeds have on travel and addresses the methodology to determining speed limits. Fundamental to the book are the devices used to measure speed. From the basic concepts of time distance determination through instant speed detection devices such as speed radars and speed lasers, the reader will explore the historical developments, scientific principles, and operational considerations of these devices. These sections are presented in depth with helpful charts and illustrations to assist understanding. The information is presented in easy to understand language to aid the reader in gaining a full grasp of both the scientific and operational differences of each technology along with the operative limitations associated with these technologies. Additionally, the book discusses the concept of voluntary speed compliance and the associated methods of achieving that. Further, the text reviews the elements needed for court scrutiny and acceptance of both speed law violations and the instruments used to measure those speeds and offers actual case examples that emphasize major legal points. The book is written with quantities and units in both U.S. and metric measure. This text is the most up-to-date and comprehensive resource concerning all methods used to monitor and enforce speed laws and is an ideal asset for traffic management courses.
Book Synopsis The Fast and the Furious by : Helen Wells
Download or read book The Fast and the Furious written by Helen Wells and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fast and The Furious: Drivers, Speed Cameras and Control in a Risk Society offers an explanation for the continued debate about one road safety intervention - the speed camera - by situating that debate within contemporary literature about the 'risk society' (Beck, 1992) and more broadly understood experiences of risk faced on a daily basis by drivers. Rather than a focus on risk as something that can be objectively assessed, measured and managed separately from the social context in which it is encountered, it suggests that 'risk' is something that permeates this particular debate from every angle.

Book Synopsis Policing the Open Road by : Sarah A. Seo
Download or read book Policing the Open Road written by Sarah A. Seo and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Smithsonian Best History Book of the Year Winner of the Littleton-Griswold Prize Winner of the Ralph Waldo Emerson Award Winner of the Order of the Coif Award Winner of the Sidney M. Edelstein Prize Winner of the David J. Langum Sr. Prize in American Legal History Winner of the Berkshire Conference of Women Historians Book Prize “From traffic stops to parking tickets, Seo traces the history of cars alongside the history of crime and discovers that the two are inextricably linked.” —Smithsonian When Americans think of freedom, they often picture the open road. Yet nowhere are we more likely to encounter the long arm of the law than in our cars. Sarah Seo reveals how the rise of the automobile led us to accept—and expect—pervasive police power, a radical transformation with far-reaching consequences. Before the twentieth century, most Americans rarely came into contact with police officers. But in a society dependent on cars, everyone—law-breaking and law-abiding alike—is subject to discretionary policing. Seo challenges prevailing interpretations of the Warren Court’s due process revolution and argues that the Supreme Court’s efforts to protect Americans did more to accommodate than limit police intervention. Policing the Open Road shows how the new procedures sanctioned discrimination by officers, and ultimately undermined the nation’s commitment to equal protection before the law. “With insights ranging from the joy of the open road to the indignities—and worse—of ‘driving while black,’ Sarah Seo makes the case that the ‘law of the car’ has eroded our rights to privacy and equal justice...Absorbing and so essential.” —Paul Butler, author of Chokehold “A fascinating examination of how the automobile reconfigured American life, not just in terms of suburbanization and infrastructure but with regard to deeply ingrained notions of freedom and personal identity.” —Hua Hsu, New Yorker
Download or read book Pulled Over written by Charles R. Epp and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In sheer numbers, no form of government control comes close to the police stop. Each year, twelve percent of drivers in the United States are stopped by the police, and the figure is almost double among racial minorities. Police stops are among the most recognizable and frequently criticized incidences of racial profiling, but, while numerous studies have shown that minorities are pulled over at higher rates, none have examined how police stops have come to be both encouraged and institutionalized. Pulled Over deftly traces the strange history of the investigatory police stop, from its discredited beginning as “aggressive patrolling” to its current status as accepted institutional practice. Drawing on the richest study of police stops to date, the authors show that who is stopped and how they are treated convey powerful messages about citizenship and racial disparity in the United States. For African Americans, for instance, the experience of investigatory stops erodes the perceived legitimacy of police stops and of the police generally, leading to decreased trust in the police and less willingness to solicit police assistance or to self-censor in terms of clothing or where they drive. This holds true even when police are courteous and respectful throughout the encounters and follow seemingly colorblind institutional protocols. With a growing push in recent years to use local police in immigration efforts, Hispanics stand poised to share African Americans’ long experience of investigative stops. In a country that celebrates democracy and racial equality, investigatory stops have a profound and deleterious effect on African American and other minority communities that merits serious reconsideration. Pulled Over offers practical recommendations on how reforms can protect the rights of citizens and still effectively combat crime.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you really want protection from the speed camera? Have you ever thought about improving your own driving skills but didn't because of the time or expense? Would you like fewer people killed and injured on our roads? If the answer is 'YES' to all these questions then you're in the right place. There is no better protection from the speed camera and reducing casualties on our roads then the motorists own skill and judgement. Over the years we motorists have allowed our standards to slip which is why so many of us get caught out by speed cameras each year and why thousands are involved in serious, life changing collisions, but is doesn't have to be this way. We can enjoy motoring without causing casualties and avoid punishment at the same time. So why 'Real Driver'? because we are going to use 'real driving' skills to beat the speed camera with not a gadget in sight. The 'Real Driving' exercises are going to take six weeks for you to master. Question is...are you up for the challenge?

Book Synopsis The Fast and The Furious: Drivers, Speed Cameras and Control in a Risk Society by : Helen Wells
Download or read book The Fast and The Furious: Drivers, Speed Cameras and Control in a Risk Society written by Helen Wells and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-03-26 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fast and The Furious: Drivers, Speed Cameras and Control in a Risk Society presents a sociological and criminological perspective critical to understanding the driver's role at the centre of road safety interventions. Such an approach is, it is argued, as crucial to an understanding of attempts to reduce road crashes, deaths and injuries as approaching such questions from an engineering or educational perspective. The book offers an explanation for the continued debate about one road safety intervention - the speed camera - by situating that debate within contemporary literature about the 'risk society' (Beck, 1992) and more broadly understood experiences of risk faced on a daily basis by drivers. Rather than a focus on risk as something that can be objectively assessed, measured and managed separately from the social context in which it is encountered, it suggests that 'risk' is something that permeates this particular debate from every angle. The book achieves its aims by utilising sociological and criminological perspectives to investigate issues such as: - the social context in which it is possible for drivers to reject official scientific expertise about crash causation and camera effectiveness - the self-defined 'respectability' of the population being problematised and its juxtaposition with a 'proper' police focus on 'real criminals' - the reconceptualisation of law-breaking as risk-taking rather than inherently 'wrong' behaviour and its consequences for the enforcement of laws based on risk assessment - the experience of being controlled by technology and of receiving what is essentially 'automated justice'. These and other issues are explored and suggested as illuminating of both the real concerns underpinning this debate and potentially instructive for future attempts to control risky behaviour both within and beyond a road safety context.
Book Synopsis The Micro-World Observed by Ultra High-Speed Cameras by : Kinko Tsuji
Download or read book The Micro-World Observed by Ultra High-Speed Cameras written by Kinko Tsuji and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-30 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is about ultra high-speed cameras, which enable us to see what we normally do not see. These are objects that are moving very fast, or that we just ignore. Ultra high-speed cameras invite us to a wonderland of microseconds. There Alice (the reader) meets a ultra high-speed rabbit (this volume) and travels together through this wonderland from the year 1887 to 2017. They go to the horse riding ground and see how a horse gallops. The rabbit takes her to a showroom where various cameras and illumination devices are presented. Then, he sends Alice into semiconductor labyrinths, wind tunnels, mechanical processing factories, and dangerous explosive fields. Sometimes Alice is large, and at other times she is very small. She sits even inside a car engine. She falls down together with a droplet. She enters a microbubble, is thrown out with a jet stream, and finds herself in a human body. Waking up from her dream, she sees children playing a game: “I see what you do not see, and this is....”. Alice thinks: “The ultra high-speed rabbit showed me many things which I had never seen. Now I will go again to this wonderland, and try to find something new.
