The head of Israel Police�s traffic division last week issued an order suspending the use of radar guns, a device which is subject to controversy in many countries/states.

The order halting the use of the device was temporary, until the investigation was completed into last week�s incident in which a policeman with a radar gun was hit by a passing vehicle. The officer sustained moderate injuries near Kibbutz Ma�agan Michael.

Late Monday afternoon, police announced it will be implementing some changes regarding use of the radar gun to improve personnel safety, adding the radar device /is once again back at work.
