I fail to see where everyone seems to think it can't be enforced. I have seen the equipment first-hand and it has even been demonstrated on television. It is handheld laser based, with a viewing screen, digital readout, and can produce an enhanced photo of a license plate at over 1/2 mile. It is accurate on fiberglass as well as metal. It is accurate at every angle, head-on, from side, from rear, even from above. Kinda tough trying to convince a judge when he has a photo of your boat log stamped with date,time & speed from a properly calibrated laser gun, eh? Surely there must be a State Trooper that reads this forum that can verify this. The technology is there. Marine Patrol just has to be equipped with it.
