Question

What are white painted squares on the road for?

Answer 1

Those are for people to use color crayons. Sitting along with a buddy rubber ducky you whistle the tune from the Andy Griffith Show and color away to your heart’s content. Soon the squares are colored and the people in the white coats magically appear with the firemen. Everything will be better now. Enjoy the ride.

police speed cameras to judge your speed from 1 square to another.

Answer 3

Those white squares and circles that are painted on the road are used for VASCAR systems. They are set distances apart, and quite often are quite visible to the police from a great distance, they could be parked up to half a mile away and still get a speed reading of an offending vehicle. But remember any fixed point can be used, such as a lamppost.

VASCAR units deactivate automatically after 7 days which means the operators have recalibrate them, this however is not the case and most officers test the unit at the start of each shift. Common places for the use of VASCAR is on motorways, in which the police car will wait just out of sight on a slip road, and time the vehicle between two points, usually the white painted square or round markings on the road, but any fixed points can be used, that the distance between them is known. They can also use it when they are following you or when you are following them.
