Sorry I'm not familiar with Lidar. The ground unit told me that the speed was calculated with a stopwatch between the white lines 500m apart. Can you please clear up what time would be written on the ticket? 11:12am or 11:43am? If it's the earlier time, is there anyway to figure out when the actual officer pulled me over?

Follow too Closely by Aircraft

I was travelling on the 401 and was pulled over for speeding 138 and following too closely, both accounts were registered by aircraft.

The two questions I had were:

1. Does the aircraft/spotter have to keep an eye on the vehicle until it is pulled over by the ground officer, or do they readio the description of the car and the police officer pulls over a car resembling that description?

2. If I was clocked by the aircraft at 12:00pm and then pulled over at 12:15, what time should be written on the actual ticket?

Thanks for the help moderators and others.
