    Default so does this mean when winter comes more leo are going to use radar then laser

    I mean who is going to stand outside when it is 15-20 degree cold, so i was thinking when winter comes more leos are going to use radar then laser, maybe they could use C/O. I mean not that I speed in the winter, because it is danger, just was thinking.

    At least the stand outside on a tripod tactic .... the leos still shoot from their cars through the side window but thats not as effective as the tripod mount

    Glass reflects about 18% of light. It would be unsafe for the cop to use it in their car without eye protection.

    Probably for most of the country with the exception of the Southwest. Here, with highs in the 60's to low 70's, winter will probably have the opposite effect.

    I usually just roll down my window and keep the floor heater and vents on. I have never been able to get the Laser to work through a window.

    We don't have tint either.
