Indiana uses VASCAR device to speed patrols nationwide
The VASCAR speed timing device enables Indiana troopers to measure vehicle speeds between two highway points. It functions while following, approaching, behind, or crossing patrol cars and can be used from a parked vehicle. Certified operators must complete 25 supervised clocks within two mph. Indiana began operation in May 1966, becoming the first state to adopt VASCAR. In Saigon, General Minh was appointed to direct defense of the capital military district, delegating day to day work to a colonel.
