Why are we here... To Make Roads Safer!
Radarsign, LLC was created out of a desire to help make roads safer wherever children
play. The three co-founders all live in subdivisions where traffic speeds of a few
careless drivers made the roads unsafe at times for everyone. We have documented
success stories that show driver feedback signs (also called radar signs, speed
radars, speed detectors, speed monitors, radar sensors, speed displays, radar speed
boards, traffic calming devices) will absolutely slow traffic, creating a safer
environment wherever they are installed.
In researching the product solutions available in the market, the two most effective
solutions turned out to be driver feedback signs and speed bumps or speed humps.
Upon further investigation, we found the following:
Speed bumps and speed humps have a lot of downside. They do slow traffic, but also
increase wear and tear on vehicles. Drivers will often speed up between humps, to
make up lost time. Humps cause real problems for snow plows, and slow emergency
response vehicles like police, fire, and ambulance. Neighborhoods also find it difficult
to universally support speed humps.
Our market research on driver feedback signs found a handful of products currently
in the US market. Many are designed seemingly as an afterthought to a company's
total product line. They have assembled retail components and housings, creating
an "off-the-shelf" solution that can be prone to failure and vandalism. Our visits
to traffic engineers around the country confirmed that many have yet to find a driver
feedback solution that measured up to their expectations. In addition, many of the
existing signs available sell for $4000 to over $9000, depending on the configuration.
We at Radarsign, LLC set out to improve on a good idea by bringing a cost effective
solution to the market that also was designed to overcome similar product's shortcomings.
Keys to our company objectives are the following goals:
- Implement the best design and rugged components to ensure reliability.
- Add key features as technology changes and the market requests.
- Keep our pricing below the market's current offerings.
Thanks for considering our product line.
