Right you are. Radar units were purchased by certain counties for CHP use on problematic secondary roads and streets in those jurisdictions. It was not authorized or used on the interstates or state highways, like CA99 shown in the clip, until later in the '90s when the CHP finally received the authorization to widely deploy their own units. Most of that radar is now being supplanted by Lidar...nasty stuff!
