While driving through Maryland back in 1970, I remember listening to
the CB and hearing everyone reporting a radar trap, but no one knew
where it was. Finally, someone reported that there was a hay wagon on the
side of the road. Apparently, the radar gun was under the hay, with the
operator off the side of the road behind some bushes. The chase cars were 
hiding about 1/2 mile down the road. Pretty sneaky, huh?
