On the A3 on Sunday. Police holding hand held speed gun on bridge over A3. Spotted him at over 200 meters away and let the speed drop. Was that enough? Wouldn't a police car have come after me and pulled me over if they were going to prosecute? Thanks

How far can you see?

The Pro-laser has a range of about 1km.

If you can see him - he can zap you ! (Usually zap you b4 you see em) Range of about 1/2 mile.
Two week wait I'm afraid.

Yeah - my new one goes up to 550metres and 199mph, so if you're further away or over 199mph you'd probably be ok

Ouch - another painful wait. I did do 100 mph when overtaking but quickly dropped down in speed to 80 ish. I hope he isnt feeling too mean.

think the lasers can go to 1 mile

theres strict rules on there use, they can only zap cars they think are speeding not all traffic and there sapposed to be clearly visable and wear a yellow dayglow jacket

if you dont get a NIP in 14 days you are ok

Is the not signing the NIP loop hole still valid?
