Desoto County; authorize sheriff to use radar on county roads.
HB 1895 (DeSoto County; authorize sheriff to use radar on county roads) would have allowed DeSoto County's Board of Supervisors to purchase radar speed detection equipment for the sheriff's department. This equipment could be used to enforce speed limits on county roads and state highways outside incorporated city limits.
