Police laser (technically referred to as police lidar) is a popular and difficult to detect form of traffic enforcement used throughout the world.
But, did you know that it's generally difficult for a radar detector alone to protect you from police laser speeding tickets?
The reason this is true, is when an officer shoots you with his or her police laser gun, the lidar's narrow light beam is typically focused on either your license plate or on one of your headlights.
And the width of this light beam is only 18” wide at 500 feet and depending upon how far you are away, if you are in targeting range, police lidar general requires fewer than a second or two to obtain your speed. This is especially true when you are targeted from behind, often from an overhead position like an overpass or an onramp.
Even sp, today police can target from great distances (greater than 1500 feet), and in those instances a good police lidar detector can really help.
But even the best radar detectors, may be foolproof at detecting police lidar.
Because of this you will need the added protection of an effective laser jammer, the Laser Veil stealth coating, or a combination of the two.
It is estimated that police lidar accounts for at least 25% of all speeding tickets issued. In some states, such as Hawaii, it is used esclusively.
TPX produces a high performance police laser jammer that is very affordable for both vehicles and motorcycles, alike.
The Uniden R9 custom installed radar detector and laser jammer has the best performing laser jammers we have ever tested.
Both the TPX and the Uniden R9 have never failed us on the road.
For those that can't afford a police lidar jammer, the Veil G6 stealth coating represents a very good and inexpensive solution for those seeking protection from police lidar.
Veil can also be used in combination with police lidar jammers to further increase their effectiveness as some like the Anti-Laser Priority, Escort ZR5/ZW5, or K40 laser jammers can occasionally experience "punch-throughs" in which speed readings can still be obtained.

Frequently Asked Questions About Police Laser Jammers
Would I still need to purchase a radar detector if I buy a laser jammer? - Yes, a laser jammer will not detect police radar. Because of this if you want 100% protection you will need both a radar detector and a laser jammer.
Do you sell radar blockers or radar jammers? – No, jamming radar is illegal and can land you a $50,000 fine and 5-years in jail. Also Radar Roy has tested these devices by Rocky Mountain Radar and offers a $50,000 reward to anyone that can show him one that works as they advertise.
Why don’t you have any Laser Interceptor or ALP laser jammers for sale on RadarBusters? – Laser Interceptor USA has ceased the importation of their jammers in the USA and with ALP, while popular in the forums and pushed by commissioned affiliate marketers, our previous ALP customers received sub-standard support from the manufacturer so we no longer recommend the brand.
Can I Get Parts for My Blinder M47, M27, HP-905? – Sorry but no, Blinder has discontinued manufacturing this laser jammer as they are exclusively manufacturing for the Escort brand.
Are Laser Jammers Legal? - The states of California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and the District of Columbia do have laws that do prohibit the use of laser jammers.
