The Nevada HP was riding his blue truck at about 60 on a 70 max section of the road and I was doing about 85 catching up with him. He had the instant-on old type of radar and I "heard" him when he shot a truck coming in the opposite direction = no ticket for me. The same works with Lidar since I'm made aware when other cars around me get shot. There are many police departments all over the US who are still using the old technology and the freeways here in CA are so crowded that plenty of guys get shot before I reach the Lidar gun of the officer standing by the side of the road: it works fine for me
