Might be nice to sit outside the local donut shop and give the cops a little taste of their own medicine.

"Um, excuse me officer, but were you in a hurry to get to that donut shop? Umm, then could you explain why you were driving 7 mph over the posted speed limit on a residential street? Could I have your badge number. I just need to call this one in."

a thing that affects the accuracy:
-point the gun as straigt at the target w/o getting run over, if you stand off the side of the raod there is a SMALL correction factor.


the gun works well for cars approaching you as well as travling away from you. the ass end of a car is more flat and easy to target. the front usally has a slope, aim for the plates of head lamps.


the gun will not effect another ladar gun

FYI: The fuzz buster laser disrupter, radar disrupter was shown not to work. A local tv station ran a test with the police using various lasers, radars, they tagged him at the correct speed 12 out of 12 trys.

Using the bushnell for brake-light bingo sounds like fun, especially outside of a bar near closing time.

You should be careful with that thing. In some states they are illegal like the detectors are, and the cops will ride you long and hard if they catch you with it.
