Law enforcement in the State of Kansas are not required to show their radar unit readings to the public. It is up to the officer’s discretion if they will allow someone to view the radar. The officer has several things to take into consideration if they allow someone to view their radar such as and most importantly, their safety, the safety of the person making the request and the safety of the other motorists on the roadway. It is not uncommon for officers not to allow people to view their radar unit readings. If a radar was used and the officer is basing their issuance of a citation on the reading of the radar, they will document that and the person can contest it in court.
