Why are you confining the question to only the NJ turnpike? Is it different from cops using laser in other parts of the U.S. ?

Ask if anyone has been saved by Lidatek in other states or cities and the answer is "yes" from a few people. Others have not installed it yet or have not had the experience of being shot yet.

If you want stories of how the jammer performed in these few cases, please use the search function.

The problem w/ Jersey turnpike is that it's so **** straight. It's basicly 6->8 lanes with little or no modulation or bends. The average speed everyone's traveling at is already in the mid 80's, crazy.

I can see your point about "foot happy".

I swear, there are times when I actually suspected that PA cops are actually endo-skeleton robots w/ a human flash coating. They are ruthless. They don't reason, they don't care, and they just want to give you a ticket and take your car away!

Becareful people, PA is not as friendly as it seems!
