yes the way radar gun work Laser (or lidar, for light detection and ranging) speed guns use a more direct method that relies on the reflection time of light rather than doppler shift. You have probably experienced the reflection time of sound waves in the form of an echo. For example, if you shout down a well or across a canyon, the sound takes a noticeable amount of time to reach the bottom of the well and travel back to your ear. Sound travels at something like 1,000 feet (300 meters) per second, so a deep well or a wide canyon creates a very apparent round-trip time for the sound.

yes some of the cars radar guns are tied into the cars computer and it takes the speed the car is moving and averages it with the radars car to get the speed the other cars moving at, some cars even have a rear radar too so they can get ya when your behind them

You could test it out by speeding past police cars and ask the officer when he writes you a ticket.

the first poster is correct, BUT its not all that accurate, because car speedometers are not all that accurate, especially at the far ranges of their sweeps.
