    Because the moment you completely trust it your busted, i have seen it to many times where people expected it save them and it didn't.

    I have had many laser saves too, but I still don't put my faith in it, im just happy when it does "save" me.

    Its not a matter of trust, im just looking at the facts, so far 100% of the time, where a very potential ticket situation could have happened, it didnt, and it appears the reason was the laser alert from the RD. I'm not saying you should trust it for utmost laser protection, and again its all reaction time, you literally have less then a second, MAYBE 2 before he gets lock, but if you react fast, it seems you can get a legitimate save from a RD laser detection. Again im not saying its 100% all the time, and it depends on the situation EACH time, im just saying laser isnt as unbeatable as alot of people are saying.

    So its not a matter of you getting into any false sense of trust with the RD, you can only do what you can do, react as fast as you can to the alert and hope for the best.

    about 6-7 inches off the dash, dead center of the windshield, and as close to level and straight as possible

    I agree, the dangerus thing would expect a 20% or above save rate for most outher people. I think you have had similar experiences as me (4-5 laser saves) and have been very lucky, IMO thay were saves even though luck had something to do with it.
    The key here is if your LEO's suck at using laser and use a gun your RD is sensative too you could have almost a 90-100% chance of a save (like your self), if thay use it corectley you have a 0% chance, or if thay use a laser gun that your RD doesint pick up.
    I think weather you can be saved or not depends on the LEO, his gun, and his abilities.

    My only consern is what new/outher people will perceve if your specifick cases are held to be fact. Aparentley For you LEO's are using a gun your RD is sensative too, and they dont use there guns efectivley.

    I know thay dont by me, The guy litaraly was shooting at my RD in my car from his truck. It was so funny.

    Oh yeah, I do NOT want my writings to be misconstrued as hard fact and for anyone to think they are fully protected with a radar detector that detects laser. Its is VERY circumstantial with a lot of variables, but when those variables are in your favor, the RD can be very effective.
