Reply to "Laser Jammer Anyone?"

It's an interesting subject and worth investigating. But only if you like to occasionally (and safely) open up the beast and let her run. There are occasionaly perfect opportunities to do it that will endanger no one but yourself.

PanteraDoug is always very humorous, but the fact is some places that we drive have draconian rules. I have lost my license 3 times and regularly get speeding tickets. I was once told to get out of the car and call someone to drive me and the car home or they would tow it away. I now have a collection of good lawyers in most of the states and provinces where I drive and have managed to avoid or reduce points in most cases - but it can be expensive over time. So even an expensive protection system will pay for itself.

Radar has been replaced almost everywhere with Lidar / Laser which make detectors of any kind sort of pointless. Because by the time you are detected, it's too late.

Both detectors and jammers are pretty much illegal in most places I drive. But jammers have a much better chance of avoiding getting stopped and dealing with the subsequent infraction being uncovered.

So that's the challenge. To find a jammer that delays the police picking up your speed for just a second or three but is not so obvious that it raises a red flag - and reveal that you are jamming them.

This short advantage allows you to brake while turning off the device. That way they will get a reading, maybe still faster than the speed limit, but slower than the speed you were originally going, which could have resulted in a serious offence. Allowing you time to turn off the device so that they can get a real speed signal avoids any danger of arrest for using a jammer or detector.

And so, the issue is how to completely hide the jamming devices and have them appear as standard parking sensors or modern lane change warning systems. Since my car is pretty much custom in electronics and will have such features installed, I now need to find a way to hide the truth from prying eyes - even on up-close roadside inspection.

I'm working on some options and think I will find the perfect solution. Like everything else on my new build, it takes a lot of work and research to uncover those suppliers willing to take the extra steps to build you what you want.

David Nunn's recommendation of K40 was right on the money. I'm working with someone there to develop the answer to this problem.
