No not that I noticed but it was around sunset and another thing that could be possible but im not sure. This McDonalds has 2 drive thru lanes, and apparently there is some sort of device that takes a picture of your vehicle somehow when you are ordering, and then when you pull up it does it again and matches you up with your order so that they know how much to charge you and which order was yours so that way 2 people can order at once. I don't know what it is that is used to recognize the vehicle but maybe had something to do with it?

Hmm. I drive a ford. No GPS or auto windshield wipers (had a car with those once... HATED them).

It might have been at sunset. I'm doing the same route today at around the same time. I'll see if it happens again.

When I had my V1, I got laser falses ALL THE TIME.

I have GPS in my car, that might have been one factor. I got them behind Trailblazers brake lights, neon signs, the sunset, my wipers?? I don't even know.. but it was bad..

I also got a laser false from some guy in blue/red flashing lights behind me.. 8-)

anyone else have this issue?

No. That is strange. I rarely get a laser false.
