police use of laser/radar

Lately ive been hearing the the use of radar by HPD will stop as it is an inconsistant source to measure speed. Is this true? Or am I getting this confused with laser? i seem to be hearing different things. Anyone have any insight on this?

How often are they calibrated and how do they calibrate it are my big questions. Next time I get pulled over, I'm keeping my car on and I'll compare my AVC-R's peak speed and the cop's "laser" to see how accurate their **** is, lol.

If you keep your car on you are sure to hear it from the cop before he even gets out of the car. they are going to ask you to turn it off and get agro on you for not doing so.

They are will say that they didn't want you to drive off and if you get out of the car while it's on they will get even more pissed thinking you might attack them...

wouldn't suggest that to you. There are plenty of ways to fight a ticket, do the research check the dmv codes for citations and research each method of tracking your speed. If you do your home work you'll find you have a fighting chance.

Laser guns are soo easy, man they usually get you from like 2500 ft away.

One click, bang, a tone sounds, and the speed is shown. You're dead. haha

I don't remember what model they use but I think it's an Ultralyte.
