PORTABLE RADAR SPEED SIGNS
Portable radar speed signs are great for use in construction zones, at special events, and in neighborhoods that complain of speeding traffic. Because these traffic signs can be mounted on a portable pole stand, be free standing, or be attached to a stationary vehicle they can be used in a wide range of applications. Easily carried by a single person and fitting in the trunk of most cars, these radar speed signs can be transported and deployed quickly with minimal resources—an officer and a patrol car. Powered by vehicle power or a battery pack a portable radar speed sign can be used almost anywhere for short or extended periods of time.
IDC's Portable Radar Speed Sign
Information Display Company's portable radar speed sign (SpeedCheck-1820P) provides a highly flexible solution for traffic calming. With its many power and mounting configurations, IDC's SpeedCheck-1820P fits a wide range of traffic calming applications. Offering similar features, yet easier to transport and less expensive than a trailer mounted radar speed sign, this portable unit is IDC's best selling product.
Advanced Technology in a Portable Radar Speed Traffic Sign
Although compact and portable, this unit includes the same state-of-the-art technology as is found in our pole mounted radar speed sign (SpeedCheck-1820F) and our trailer mounted radar speed sign (SpeedCheck-1820T). This includes IDC's exclusive UltraClear™ feature offering exceptional display clarity and contrast, and SafetyMask™ which prevents drivers from viewing the radar speed sign from acute angles, thereby focusing their attention on the roadway—not looking sideways at the radar speed sign.
