If it'* designed to "jam" radar detectors that the cops use to check speed, I doubt it would work. I think that the new speed guns use lasers that work like range-finders, except they automatically check the distance twice, which tells them the speed. So, unless you have a way to keep the laser from hitting any part of your car at all, I don't think it would work.

No. Cops use. X, K, Ka, & Laser. it all depends on what state, town, or City you are in.

NYS Troopers like to use Laser on Highways. But most of the time the cops in NYS use K or Ka.

Sqela. Not worth the $.. U just need to slow down and use the radar detector you have. Just remember. Laser you are pretty much don for every time. Radar... If yo have someone in front of you like 1/8-1/2 miles ahead, that you can be saved. but if you are out and about b your self... you have a 50/50 chance if you seeing them before they get you.

and one more thing with a Jammer.... if you get caught with it... yea BIG fines and i think some states Jail time...
