Radar Detectors and Laser Jammers Review By Need For Speed

being a race car driver is fun and sure tricking out million-dollar cars is fun true but what about us real people with real cars on real roads we need to show too and that squat I'm here it's my mission to put the fun back into real life driving anything that has to do with driving is fair game because my playground uncle road most travel so I've got to drop top drop cruising down the highway not a care in the world until first there's no worse sound in the world and hearing that siren and knowing the man is coming to get you [Music] and brace yourself because you know what's coming next and the ticket is just the beginning of my problems my insurance rates will skyrocket echt ourselves from this happening to us radar roy right yes sir Craig Jackson you got a radar roy rare claims to know the secret that will keep you from ever getting a ticket again i'm a retired police officer i was involved in law enforcement for twenty years I was very heavily involved in traffic enforcement okay now Roy deals with both sides of the law he trains police officers in the use of speed monitoring equipment and offers advice to regular drivers on how to keep from getting busted for speeding so then that means that you have a lot of good stuff a lot of good stuff let's go check it out right our let's go the first thing you need to do is understand the technology you're up against police monitor traffic primarily using two different types of monitoring devices laser and radar radar technology has been around much longer and is still more widely used by law enforcement nationally statistically 80 percent are still using radar and 20 percent of using laser the limitations of radar are that it goes out a very wide beam does not work as well in heavy traffic at 500 feet this radar beam is 67 feet wide when using radar police must be trained in visual target identification in other words they have to be able to accurately guess the speed by sight then using the radar which will pluck the fastest vehicle on the road they confirm their sightings laser monitoring devices work well in any situation but excel in heavy traffic a laser gun sends out a beam no wider than 12 to 18 inches and can target specific vehicles so to keep that from happening to you we're gonna need some expert advice from broy all right so what you got oh the first thing you're gonna need is a good radar detector prices for quality radar detectors start out around 300 bucks and go up from there but the advantage of a good detector is that it will alert you to a police radar gun before they have a chance to clock your car kind of nice about this new radar detector with coupling with GPS it does a couple of things this detector isn't constantly driving you crazy with false alerts it automatically adjusts its sensitivity level depending on whether you're driving on the highway or in city traffic but it's the only reason to have a radar detector so you can intentionally break the law not according to Roy we don't encourage you to use this become a poor or bad driver or speedy driver that's not the intent of these devices this is the device to make you more aware what your surroundings are 80% of accidents are closed today are closed by drivers not paying attention well he sounds sincere so a quality radar detector alerts you to a radar gun but what if the police are monitoring using laser radar detectors do have the ability to detect laser but if it does it's too late and you've already gotten yourself a ticket light lasers the speed of light so we use for laser is a laser jammer when police clock a car with laser they typically target a bright object like the license plate so laser jamming senses are mounted in the grille of the vehicle best way to explain it a police officer signs a 50 watt light at you and you're gonna shine back to 250 watt light back at then and the red spectrum you're gonna put out their light they're not gonna see you coming down the road you're invisible it all sounds good in theory but will it really keep me from getting a ticket let's put it to the test now without my radar detecting equipment I'm kind of at the mercy of my own eyesight and my own awareness to know whether or not there's police officers around so I kind of you have to keep it under the speed limit or drive fast and be super wary and as you saw earlier that doesn't always work out so well now let's see what happens when equipped with the technology that Roy recommends now I'm in radar Roy's car right now and I have laser jamming equipment and also radar detecting equipment so let's see if this stuff really when targeting other cars you can see how easily their speed is there he comes but watch what happens when boy tries to target the car that I'm driving which is equipped with a laser jammer there they are right there so right now he's hitting me with the laser gun and my laser jammer is hitting him back now I don't like any reading on him at all he's invisible to me that noise is irritating but if it works I guess it's worth it never got them Jim okay so a good radar detector combined with a laser jammer will give you the best line of defense but remember laws vary and this technology is illegal in some states locally before using any radar or laser protection in your vehicle
