Yep, it was Gwinnett. The way I figure it, the only way it could possibly work is if they have some new system that automatically takes into account the officer's speed going in the one direction, your 'negative' speed (relative to him) going in the other direction, and instantaneously makes the calculation and displays your speed. I mean, it's possible to do that, mathematically speaking. I just don't know if such systems actually exist. I know he didn't have his radar on when he was in front of me because my V1 was silent. We pass each other, then my V1 goes off with the arrow indicating that the signal is behind me. In fact, my first thought was "Hmm...what good is that going to do him?" D'oh!
