Thanks. This follow up question may be difficult to answer: what percentage of traffic stops are radar vs laser? I'm surprised that law enforcement doesn't switch entirely to lasers.
Laser is a different story. Usually if you get a laser hit , it's a ticket notifier function, because the narrow laser beam has hit your car at the time it is detecting it. Doesn't work the same way radar beams do, where a good detector will alert you before the signal will alert the LEO.
Really appreciate the detailed answer. My strategy to avoid a ticket has always been to just follow behind a guy who is going the same speed and never be the first car.
What's a ticket notifier by the way?
Laser units were about to disappear completely a few decades ago, because of all the negatives I mentioned above. The only reason they stayed, was Geico bought out the Lidar company and started giving the guns away for free. This allowed the police to write more tickets, and therefore Geico could raise insurance rates more.
To answer your question about the ticket notifier, we refer to laser warnings on a detector as that because if it's going off for an actual signal, the cop has your speed. Basically, you are getting a ticket if you're speeding. I turned my laser warning off because of frequent false alerts from the sun and driver's assistance systems on other cars.
