VASCAR is time and distance.  There is no way of detecting VASCAR because the 
timing equipment doesn't put out any signal. The trooper clicks one toggle 
when you cross the first line and another when you cross the second.  They 
already know the distance between the two lines and the machine prints out 
your speed.  

The only indication of VASCAR is the white lines painted on the highway.  By 
the time you notice them, you've probably already been timed through them and 
you probably won't see the trooper that's checking your speed.  Until he 
pulls you over that is.

VASCAR also can be set up to time you past two stationary objects.
