On our way back from our visit at CES 2023 in Las Vegas, we get shot unexpectedly with a Dragon Eye Compact police lidar from an overpass while traveling in excess of 20mph over the PSL.
The laser jammer we were using on this trip was the new TPX Automotive Laser Jammer and Parking Sensor and once again it proved its capabilities even against the difficult to jam DEC.
Our daily driver, the Uniden R8, also turned in a great performance quickly detecting and alerting to the use of the DEC police laser.

Be prepared for that double stop. When my now wife and I were dating, she was coming up to visit me on vacations. I had discussed with her if a cop pulled someone over ahead of her and then signaled her to pull over, to wave and just keep going. On one of her trips she was leading the pack, and then decided to slow down a bit, the car behind her took the lead. They came over a hill and the cop was there, pulled in behind the first car and pulled him over. When the cop got of the car he waved for my girlfriend to pull over. She waved, and later told me he didn't come after her. The best protection is having good SA.

If a cop can’t get a reading they will likely pull you over, as jammers in some places are illegal. It is suggested people install a kill switch, so when they know the jammer is in effect slow down to correct speed, then use kill switch otherwise in some countries you could get the car impounded. No reading would give them probable cause to look at the vehicle closer in most places. Don’t use them in Virginia for example. I only add this as most countries they are illegal, America most states do seem to allow them.

Depends. At greater distances it’s possible to react in time. I was once targeted from a far distance and immediately changed lanes. This forced the officer to re-aim. I didn’t get a ticket. Of course I use Veil as it reduces laser reflections, so everything helps. But generally, close range, you are cooked.

Good detector. Made by the the company owned by Uniden. My personal preference is Uniden products, but still a good detector. I like it’s new fangled power cord and nice large front display. Sensitivity is similar to the R4 although it doesn’t use an LNA like the R4 or R8.

What speed where you going when you got lazered? Just trying to determine how you know the jammer worked. Good video. To the haters, the van should have known the Mercedes slowed way down. A simple glance to the right by the driver of the van and he would have seen the detector. The ticket is on the driver of the van. Not the driver of the Mercedes. I always thought sharing one’s countermeasures can get one in trouble as well?

Only illegal in State of Mississippi, Virginia and US Capitol Washington DC. He probably removed it, as precaution. If police see radar detector, police will wonder why does person need one, or is that device the reason they didn't record speed (received error). Laser jammers are banned in several states around the US, as well as Washington D.C. Here is the list of where laser jammers are illegal in the US: California Colorado Illinois Minnesota Nebraska (questionable) Oklahoma South Carolina Tennessee Texas Utah Virginia Washington D.C.

My R7 speaker was going the past week and CRAPPED out yesterday afternoon. (Really inconvenient since I had a hour and half trip up Garden State Parkway for work trip & it crapped out AT start up.) I CANNOT justify OVER A MONTH for repair sending it to Uniden. 😂 And because in too nice I always give my older detectors away to needy friends. Although slowing down a lot in my 40s I like to do a steady 90. And (knock on wood) have 0 speeding tickets in life thanks to radar detectors. But the r7 had been my FAV for highway driving since i got it end of 2019. 🤔 Is there anyone here who has used both r7 and r8 ? Mainly NJ highway driving & around town. Im getting conflicting to reviews online. Some say r7 hits first and others r8. Same with range detection. Would be super helpful to get some input here..... and Thank You in advance. 🖤

The R8 is more sensitive, however RDs can alert at different times for a host of reasons. We don’t recommend running two together if you are looking to do direct comparisons to make such specific judgements on performance because of crosstalk potential.

Federal statutes are the laws passed by Congress, usually with the approval of the President. What a statute is called when it is introduced in Congress or a state legislature. When a bill is passed by both houses and the President or a state governor, it becomes a law and will usually be published according to its bill number in a publication called "Session Laws" or "Statutes at Large." Statute law is written laws originating from municipalities, states, or national legislatures; laws are written or unwritten guidelines or rules that are followed by communities. Statutory speed limits are established by State legislatures for specific types of roads (e.g., Interstates, rural highways, urban streets) and can vary from State to State. They are enforceable by law and are applicable even if the speed limit sign is not posted. When I posted this weeks ago, I was but the learner. Now I am the master. Posted speed sign are the law.

Speeding was a factor in 29% of all traffic fatalities in 2021, killing 12,330, or an average of over 33 people per day. The total number of fatal motor-vehicle crashes attributable to speeding was 11,057. A crash is considered speeding-related if the driver was charged with a speeding-related offense or if racing, driving too fast for conditions, or exceeding the posted speed limit was indicated as a contributing factor in the crash. 2021 is the third consecutive year with an increase of speeding-related deaths. In addition, the percent of deaths involving speeding (29%) is above the historic low set in 2019 when 26% of deaths involved speeding.

We took turns few times leading depending on who got stuck diff places on a 2 hour drive. (ya know how ppl can't understand the stay right, pass left thing .) I was getting off exit right BEFORE Atlantic City and he was still going. My R7 went off.... his detector hadn't. (Or he didnt HAVE one.) I flashed my lights 2 times at him RIGHT before getting into right lane to get off at next exit half mile away. U know that cop got off the exit to pull ME over instead of the Corvette doing between 95-100. He said its "Obstruction of Justice." I said i was sorry & didn't know it was illegal. (Which if course I did know.) 😂 🤷‍♀️ LUCKILY have a family member badge for NYPD & he let did me go right away..... but damn. Never had that happen warning someone before. Would I do it again, sure. No prob warning ppl of impeding doom ahead lol. But I do ALSO understand the mindset of ppl taking responsibility for themselves. If u wana do 100 on highways, u should PROB invest in a radar detector lol.

It’s called situational awareness. The driver came up behind me very close. It’s not my job to brake check them and then somehow try to signal (in Morse code?) that there was a potential trap ahead? I didn’t know he was still there targeting until I got lasered. If we were driving more as a team versus this guy staying in the left lane the entire time, things may have been different.
