Pennsylvania Police Need Radar

We're the ONLY state denying this life-saving tool to local law enforcement

The Shocking Reality

1 of 50
Pennsylvania is the ONLY state that prohibits municipal police from using radar

🚨 Public Safety Crisis

Speeding is a leading cause of traffic fatalities. Without radar, our local officers are fighting this threat with one hand tied behind their back.

💔 Lives at Risk

Every day without proper speed enforcement tools means more dangerous drivers on our roads, putting families, children, and communities at risk.

⚖️ No Justification

If radar technology is trusted by 49 other states, there's no logical reason Pennsylvania should deny this tool to our police.

🎯 Proven Effective

Radar is accurate, reliable, and has been the gold standard for speed enforcement nationwide for decades.

👮 Officer Safety

Current methods require officers to pace vehicles or use less reliable tools, putting them at greater risk.

🏘️ Community Support

Local communities overwhelmingly support giving police the tools they need to keep neighborhoods safe.

Sample Letter to Your Representative

Dear Representative [NAME],

I urge you to introduce and champion legislation that would permit municipal police departments in Pennsylvania to use radar for speed enforcement.

Pennsylvania remains the only state in the nation that restricts this essential tool from local law enforcement—a fact that is both concerning and difficult to justify. Radar technology is a proven, effective means of enforcing speed limits and saving lives. If it is trusted by every other state in the country, there is no reason our communities should be denied its benefits.

The absence of this capability puts our local officers at a disadvantage and limits their ability to protect the public. Speeding remains one of the leading contributors to traffic fatalities, and our municipalities deserve the same tools available to police departments nationwide to combat this issue.

Allowing municipal radar use is a practical, non-partisan step toward improving public safety. I respectfully ask that you take action on this matter and help move Pennsylvania forward. Our families, children, and communities are counting on your leadership.

Thank you for your time and dedication to public service.

Sincerely,
[YOUR NAME]
