My radar has a laser shifter, and I loved driving by a speed trap as a cop holds his laser gun with a confused look on his face. I have caught them multiple times shaking their gun as I drive by as if they thought it had broken.
Yeah Ive seen some videos of what happens when the jammer trips. The Laser unit starts going nuts, like it can read range to the car but not speed. Then it throws an error code.
It won't be long before the cops catch on to these though.
