There are two separate regulations; one on radar equipment and one on laser equipment. The provisions are formulated in such a way that all equipment used shall be approved by the authority. The authority then puts the technical requirements in the purchase criteria of the instruments. For radar equipment the technical part of the requirements are based on OIML R 91. Legal bases: ‐ “Ordinance for Measuring Systems for Official Speed Checks of the Road Traffic” (SR 941.261) ‐ “Directives for Speed Surveillance of the Road Traffic” addressed at the police for the use ‐ Document OIML D11 (ed. 2004) We think it would be useful to take this opportunity to suggest inclusion of a secondary check reference clearer than the note at the bottom of page 4 of OIML R91. A secondary check for automatic unattended equipment should be included as a desirable if not an essential requirement – see section 5.7.1 of the Speedmeter Handbook. We think therefore there should be a sentence in the main text of the Recommendation, perhaps at the start of section 3.4.2. This could be on the following lines "For automatic unattended operation it is strongly advised to have a second method of speed measurement involving a different principle (such as two images taken a known time apart) for verifying the primary measurement".
