2004 Laser Detection
|
Laser Detection TestLaser enforcement is becoming more and more popular, as an example, the State of Hawaii does not have one radar gun, all their guns are laser!
The growing shift toward laser enforcement is because typical radar guns cannot make proper target identification in a group of vehicles, and because the laser technology is becoming more advanced, allowing officers to now being able to shoot their guns through windshields. When an officer targets your vehicle with traffic laser, he normally aims his beam at either your front headlight or your front license plate. When the beam strikes your car its maximum diameter is only 18". This means if the officer is pointing the beam at your front license plate and your detector is high or mid level on the windshield, chances are that your detector will never alert. This is why Radar Roy feels that if you are using a a radar/laser detector you should consider mounting it as low on the windshield as possible (not obstructed by the wiper blades), to increase your chances of detecting laser. Also if laser is also used in your area you should also consider a good laser jammer that will make your car invisible to this type of traffic enforcement. The following is the laser detection test results from the 2004 Speed Measurement Laboratories testing. In all these tests, the detector was mounted as the manufacture recommended, mid-level on the windshield:
