Ugh, I guess I am not explaining this very well. I marked a spot on Allen Pkwy (where I got my ticket) the spot where I saw the cop was about a mile and a half after that point. He was still in his car, presumably writing a ticket for the person he had pulled over and I saw him from a clear distance, but it was not until about 25-50 yards from his cruiser until my RD went off. Is that normal? I don't understand why it would not go off sooner, as in when I saw him from 200 yards away, if it were to go off at all.
