    Default laser jamming in tx?

    how prominent is laser in texas? i've prob only seen 1 or 2 state troopers use laser and maybe a couple city cops use laser.

    bottom line is i am interested in buying laser interceptor and having it installed. would cost me about 1200 total. is it worth it for tx? am i just lucky that i haven't seen more laser usage?

    i already have a V1 and figure this would compliment it well....

    thanks.

    Texas is a big state. Can you be more specific?

    In most of Texas that I frequent, laser is prevalent. Only out on the open interstate, well away from cities, does radar dominate.

    I see a lot of laser here in Houston. I got nailed by laser just outside of Dallas on 45. SO yes I would say laser is used very much in those ares. I have a V1 as well and it goes off often, but thankfully most times it's not on me (just the once)

    Laser is definitely prevalent in Texas....invest in the jammer and maybe Veil G4 for a little more reaction time when encountering laser.

    Houston seems to use Laser the most on the freeways and radar on surface streets, although you will see laser there too during rush hour. DPS typically doesn't shoot laser because they have to cover a lot of territory so they patrol on the move using Instant On. I doubt you will encounter it on the interstate between Houston and Austin but guaranteed you will probably run into to it as you enter the municipalities.

    Better to be prepared than deal with that one ticket.

    As far as I-35 goes I have seen laser in: Austin, Temple, Troy, Lorena, DPS outside of Temple and one unknown county, I think it might have been Hill county up 35 a little bit from Temple. So yes laser is getting to be very common.
