They can. You'll get a hefty fine, no matter how well its hidden.

edit:: i don't use one
I thought they had a belkin radar (x35?) maybe that would detect lazer and jam the first reading. And in most states (I heard) the officer has to hit you twice with a laser in order to ticket you and the radar disables itself so the police officer can get a 2nd reading.. That way theres time in between to slow down? :dunno: anyone hear of this?
