1. Are you allowed to sit comfortably in your car and use your lazer through windows/windscreen, or are you not supposed to zap us through the glass?
2. Are you allowed to use your lazer at night?
3. With the window open are you allowed to 'bounce' your lazer off the wing mirror to zap motorists approaching from the rear?

I seem to remember a hocifer of the law telling me the instruction manual for the lazer proscribes the first two of these actions bcause 1.the glass, and 2. reflected light and headlights might affect the accuracy/validity of the readings thereby obtained.

I'm not an expert, but 1 and 3 are definitely not allowed.
2 is though, they have low light cameras on the mobile vans (which use laser) now in North Wales.

The radar muniquips (if there are any left) can not be used in a vehicle and can be used at night.
