Secondly, if he said your buddy was doing 72 in a 55, good chance he was. There are more and more Lasers in use and less Radars, so if the cop had laser that's it, no arguemnt. Best you can do is ask the cop at what distance he read you at..... laser guns will tell velocity and distance up to 1500 ft. and they have to write if they used laser or radar on the ticket. If they do use laser, they will write the distance they clocked you at.
where'd you hear that? i've had my V1 for a almost a year now, and its NEVER picked up a laser signal coming from a cop. red neon signs and LED tail lights CAN set the laser warning off, but usually only if you get close enough.
Ka and K band radar are still the most widely used, by far. CHP uses only Ka band radar right now, and most local PD uses K band. i get K band signals on a daily basis. whenever i drive to or from college i get four or five Ka signals. never any laser
