The report documents a study conducted to assess the cost-effectiveness of two speed enforcement strategies: airspeed timing teams and laser 'wolfpack' timing teams. Airspeed timing is conducted along roadway segments marked with bright paint identifying the timing zone for the pilot. The pilot and a police officer fly up and down a selected corridor timing suspect vehicles and calling ground units stationed at the roadside along the target corridor to apprehend vehicles identified as speeding. Laser timing teams work in an identical manner with the exception that instead of the timing being accomplished by a pilot and spotter in a plane, these observations are being made by an officer with a laser speed-measuring device and a spotter calling to the chase units along the corridor. Because of ever shrinking resources available for police activities, it is increasingly important that enforcement activities be conducted using the most cost-effective strategies.
