§17C-6-7. Prima facie evidence of speed by devices employing microwaves or reflected light; placing of signs relative to radar or laser.
The speed of a motor vehicle may be proved by evidence obtained by use of any device designed to measure and indicate or record the speed of a moving object by means of microwaves or reflected light, when such evidence is obtained by members of the department of public safety, by police officers of incorporated municipalities in classes one, two and three, as defined in chapter eight-a of this code, and by the sheriff and his deputies of the several counties of the state. The evidence so obtained shall be accepted as prima facie evidence of the speed of such vehicle.

In order to inform and educate the public generally that speed of motor vehicles operating within the state is being tested by radar or laser mechanisms, the division of highways shall locate and place suitable and informative stationary and movable signs at strategic points on and along highways in each county of the state giving notice to the public that such radar or laser mechanisms are in use.
