Radar prompts push for Pennsylvania radar laws after fatal crash
In Harrisburg three Williamsport residents died when a state police patrol car broadsided their northbound car at Routes 15 and 64 near Williamsport. A trooper injured in the crash supported radar use to prove speeding without prolonged pursuit. Police say the northbound car turned onto Route 64 as the patrol car, traveling south, struck it. Officials debate radar legislation as advocates argue it could prevent high speed chases and fatal collisions.
