I use to run radar all the time, but recently the police in my area have upgraded to Laser units. The laser beam is narrow and quick, even the top end (like V1) may or may not detect it. And if you are hit with a laser alert, its too late. (Even if you live in a state where Radar is allowed, your chances in just getting a warning are slim if the cop sees your radar).

Laser Jammer units will help you out to combat this, but you'll want to turn it off as soon as you hear the alert and reduce to the posted speed limit to allow cop get a reading afterwards.

Also important to note, if you are the ONLY car on a lonely road, a cop will have is radar off until he sees your car and bam hit you with the radar Instant-On feature. By the time you get alerted they have your speed.

It's a fun device to have, but just letting you know it won't save you all the time.
