Mark,
Ineffective use of a sidearm. I crossed the Ont. border a few years ago. Got the dystonic Canidian border agent. "You own any guns, tobacco or explovies?" Naw, only the green american money you live on. Does not the VG2 system work. Touted to prevent police detection of a radar unit. Stelth and metal car. Angle of incidence is equal to angle of devlection. Is there another phisic law? L. McC |

Nope, haven't heard that one yet. But I will say this...If the radar doesn't get you. The laser will. There is no defense for it. You can read all you want how these companies gaurantee to detect the laser. But I am hear to tell you that I receive a speed reading on my laser in 3 tenths of a second when the trigger is pulled. The laser is off until you pull the trigger. If you can react that fast, then you are one helluva human being. The laser detectors will detect it, but by then, it's too late. IMHO of course. |

Recently got a $250 speeding ticket by a motorcycle cop using a laser, and I was in the right lane and someone was passing me!!!WTF. Do these work on the photo radar that the city of Beaverton and Portland (OR) are so fond of???

We had Photo Radar here for a while (mid-'90's), the leading govenment (at the time) got tossed because of it. Nothing but a cash grab. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) |

The V1 reads four types of radar...
X- now used by motion sensing doors at the shopping malls, but STILL used by Podunk PDs and "How Fast are Ya going" signs where cops can hide behind. K- more modern than X but still antiquated....used by LAPD and my local PD Ka- Used by the CHP and a more modern precurser to Laser..... Laser- yer fucked, pull over and take it....unless it's a false alarm from the third brake light on an SUV (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pissoff.gif) |
