There was a traffic cop in SJC who liked to set up a radar trap and bag some airline mechanics on their way home after shift. After a few tickets the mechanics hung the nose of a DC10 over the fence and tilted the weather radar to line up with the cop position. A couple mechs drove by at legal speeds and called the onshift guys that the cop was there. They fired up the APU, warmed up the radar and sent one of their guys out to get burritos. After their guy was approaching the cop they gave the radar a few sweeps, and the cop left soon after, to never return to his duck pond again.
