I dint know never used one but the last speeding ticket I got it said laser somethin on it. How do u even combat this?
Most places still use lidar or some other form of radar. Some do use laser, but it hasn't been fully adopted. The technology they use generally is instant on, instant off so you dont get a non stop signal like you used to. But a radar detector is an instrument. You need to learn to read it and make your own educated decisions. They still will save your butt. I have a V1 and it has saved me countless times. A radar mixed with careful driving will help you avoid tickets. A completely empty road with cops hiding, using instant on, and you're still screwed. Even with a $500 detector like the V1, being saved from one ticket will have paid for it.
