Those njsp overpasses at 37 and 13 are major lidar spots. Almost every other time I take the tp I see a trooper shooting laser at southbound traffic. I've also seen c/o X at 13.

Also, a little...

Yep, I've confirmed Ka on the turnpike. He was using semi-selective I/O as I was traveling with the trooper heading northbound from around 5 to 6 or 7. He then pulled up on that overpass near mm 53...

That spot on the NJTP sounds like the state police overpass near mm 37. They love to sit there and run laser at the southbound traffic. Also, there's another overpass near mm 13 where they like to...

Careful driving in Big L mode in NJ, though. Maybe try little l mode with the muted volume lever all the way down. I say this because you might miss those early-warning low-LED instant on X alerts...

Just be aware that the officer is not obligated by law to show your speed on his radar or lidar gun. Chances are good that it won't matter to the judge if he showed you your speed or not; the...

I got some good laughs from this article and thought I'd post it (I'm sure it's old but I just came across it):

Then my questions were definitely answered, thanks!

So, now I really don't have anything but good things to say about cheetah.

What are you talking about?

I'm referring to when there's a problem with the heads or a connection issue the lpp will beep 3 times. Here's some refs:...

No, they are completely legal to own and operate in nys.

I'm currently using the Cheetah system with my lpp. I know enough about cars to get around, but I wasn't willing to put in the time to deal with the wiring and such that came with installing a...

Cheetah wireless kits can now turn off the jammer it's hooked up to with the new keyfob remote kill switch (see the Cheetah section or their website). There are wireless fitting kits available for...

Get Cheetah and DIY! For my money, I wouldn't trust a car shop with a laser jammer. Although I have no doubt that there are good ones around that actually know what they're doing, I've heard of...

This is one of the exact reasons why I like the arrows so much. I think it helps to make the sensitivity bearable when driving through areas with some falses (like the Garden State pkwy in nj).

A look at the July off-axis tests:

I wouldn't necessarily call it not so good sensitivity, V1 has no problem with 35.5 straight away, just...

NJSP seem to be in hiding, at least the last time I drove the NJTP it was desolate. My money is that they'll come out of hibernation over christmas break.

On my trips over thanksgiving break driving around the NJ/NYC/Long Island area, I only encountered one real trap. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, which was odd, I thought, for...

My best suggestion is to drive around in A mode for about a month or so and get a feel for how the V1 reacts to different situations. Make sure you encounter some real leos with radar as well as...

For an at home test to see if you're laser detection is alright, try a remote control from your TV or cable box. The original Xbox dvd remote seemed to work really well for me. Although if you...

But the 9500i..did much better than the newer firmwares from V1..I was really surprised

Overall an excellent bit of information. I have not used a radar detector in so long it is hard to know...

If this is the case, it really just comes down to driving habits and what you want in a detector. With proper usage, both will give you ample warning time with c/o radar and, depending on the...

I got tagged on the Belt pkwy in brooklyn about a year and a half ago before my v1 and countermeasures days. When the officer handed me ticket, I asked him how he got me, he said laser, pro laser...

I'm not really sure, I didn't read it all through, but check out this thread,

I can't take credit for this find, it was jazzy from another thread, but apparently Mike V posts over at a different forum. There was a question directed towards him regarding LED lights and false...

I think this is arguable. Has there been any recent testing of this hypothesis?
