    Default Redline doing great on KA and Laser hits!

    Driving on I-57 in IL and all of the sudden I get a hard hit from LASER! I think oh **** I am caught but I immediately slam my brakes just the same, while at the same time spotting the car and trooper doing the shooting, and then I get I much harder hit which was the one meant for me.

    This is the 4th time I have picked up scatter from Laser giving me time to slow down prior to getting shot. I don't care what the "old dogs" here say this thing has been great for KA and Laser in IL!

    Awesome, that's when you know that it is doing it job great save. I think that I need to dig my Redline out of the tool box and start using my some more but I'm hook on the V1 for now.

    Well, that does happen from time to time, but don't bank on it.

    There were 2 local cops shooting laser near here last summer in a fixed spot. They were not issuing tickets, but practicing using the new gear. I went round the block several times, and 2 of 3 times my Redline alerted, 1 not, and I was even able to see him aiming the gun at my car.

    Congrats mate!

    You probably got luck on the Laser hits to be honest. I'd say the results are atypical. What part of 57 were you on? I've never seen laser on there! I've always run into it on 294.
    Down around Salem just north of Mt. Vernon. They run speed traps there fairly often especially when the motorcycle cops are out.

    Nice save but too close for comfort. Get yourself some jammers.
