    Default Of course this would happen

    So I am late for work today, and decide not to put up my dash cam.

    sure enough, my first laser experience today which would have been a debate.

    I saw him up ahead, and there was a car in front of me. so I switch lanes behind another car. As I am crossing the lines, the blinder says *BEEP* and then it is silent. V1 never went off. I have my blinder 1 second alert delay.

    what do you think, instant punch through, or just a scatter? The fact that the leo was about 700 feet away or so and the v1 was silent, I am thinking scatter.

    I dunno about scatter. I may not be picturing this correctly, but it's pretty hard to catch scatter that low from a car in front of you being targeted.

    Scatter!!!!!!!!!!! People are only just now realizing how sensitive the new Blinders are..At this point they are a little to sensitive. That is why we are releasing a new algo for filtering falses probably mid to end of next week.

    Scatter, I don't think the LEO would be targeting you as you changed lanes from behind 1 vehicle to behind another, if I am picturing it correctly.
