sure there was a discussion on here couple of months back re this product. As I recall it has some interesting side effects on certain roadside equipment

www.ukspeedtraps.co.uk/laserpropark.htm Yes and yes. Easier even than they intimate in this article, and that is from someone who regards elektrickery as a Dark Art

Anyone tried the blinder products - seem to be readily available in UK for just under £300 though buying and shipping from US works out at around the £220 if you manage to get it through customs without import duty.

The problem with these jammers is that the cop will know you have you one fitted when he doesn't get a reading. IIRC these are now illegal and you could end up worse off than getting the speed ticket in the first place. The Laser Pro Park at least has some defence in that it purports to be a parking aid and not a jammer. But I doubt that would stand up in court either. Too risky by half methinks.

^^^ This is true. There have been several tales over on SP&L about this. If the BiB can't get a reading, they take your picture anyway and your rego number goes on a dodgy list. If it happens again, they come and inspect your car for jamming devices. It's reported that people have been done for perverting the course of justice by jamming speed trap lasers in this way - which can result in a jail sentence! Be very careful.

You'd be astonished how many you don't get a reading thoughout a day, the SLD's generally don't give a code just a nil reading (very clever) So unlikely to alert them.

This is correct. Fit it and dont worry. It is a parking aid and I have no idea if it does anything else
