The Kustom KR-10SP is moving radar unit used by the Victorian Police Force since November 1993, with a total of 48 in service as of the 29th of June 1995. Moving radar are radar units that are capable of measuring the speed of an oncoming vehicle (other units have the ability to measure the speed of vehicles travelling in the same direction as the patrol car, but the Victorian Police’s KR-10SP does not), by sending one beam at an angle sideways at objects on the side of the road to calculate the patrol c ars speed, and a beam ahead of the patrol car at on coming vehicles. As the speed of the oncoming vehicle will be the sum of both the patrol car and the target cars speed, the patrol cars speed as measured by the sideway beam. Moving radar can also be u sed stationary, but is rarely used as TOG cars normally carry a hand held unit with them. Though NSW Police do use their units more so stationary, just parking the car and blasting traffic (more lazy?).
Moving radar is alleged by the TOG to be only used in 100kph speed zones, in country and outer Melbourne suburbs. Each country city (they might get offended by town) has on average about 3 moving radar units, eg. Bendigo, Wodonga, Shepparton, 6 per distr
ict. It cannot be used on divided highway or freeways, only on single lane roads. The Wheels test measured the KR-10SP obtaining a target vehicles speed at about 1.5km, while the radar unit was stationary.
The KR-10SP transmits on K-band.
