If so, do the vehicles have to be a certain distance from each other. By the way both vehicles going the same way one behind the other and the cop facing the the two vehicles on the shoulder of the road.

Here is what he probaly did. He radared the first car if the car behind it was right behind it it is obviously going the same speed. Or if it was a distance behind the other car he could of got both he did the first car then he did the second right after the first. I was married to a cop for a while i know some of the tricks they did.

This probably won't help but I thought I would just add that the way a radar gun works, it measures the speed of the fastest moving object relative to the gun. In other words if the faster car is in back of the slower car the gun will not distiquish them.
Also it isn't like a laser beam; the signal spreads out quite a bit before bouncing back.

He can only shoot one at a time! That is why some tickets are fraudulent because they CAN NOT shoot radar when traffic is at maximum flow with accuracy. They will generally pick the "youngster" or easiest stop because they are doing quotas!
Government denys it just like profiling but we all know better. They stop you if you are black, Hispanic, a male out alone at night, and for other reasons they won't admit too. The same with radar! They don't calibrate like they are supposed to and they will play their game for quick easy money for the state!!!!
It is also true they can calculate your speed with great accuracy too! My best friend is a state trooper to which I've riden with several times. He will tell me the guys speed then shoot him with vascar and he is always within a mile or two every time!

I've seen one cop standing beside the road in a school zone pointing to the cars he was "pulling over" while another cop went from car to car to give out tickets. There were a line of cars. They can do what they want-even without Radar guns because in court they say they are trained to know the speed people are driving by sight...I was one of them pulled over-I was too busy chewin out my kid for something and was speeding...

you can only radar one car at a time. however if the two cards are traveling in tandem with relatively the same speeds, it is lawful to suggest both cars are in fact traveling the speed clocked on the radar.

No however if he successfully clocked one vehicle, and the other one was moving at the same pace, he can still site both people.

If he had 2 radars then yes.
