Interesting vid. I could see that would be ok in the UK for laser traps, but I don't think we have those down here do we? All laser still hand held mostly by bike cops? In which case, if I was a cop pointing a laser at a car and not getting a reading, would be suspicious of something dodgy going on. Even though it might be considered legal because it is a parking sensor, I bet they could still ping you for something, like when my towball supposedly blocked my license plate.

think the gist of it is the readings are played with this unit operational and reports that something is not right giving reason not to accept what police radar says?

I wonder how long parking sensors etc will be allowed to keep using 904nm light then, seems like the sort of thing police would not let happen.

Was suprising to find that out really, would have thought lots would be done to make the units so that nothing would get in the way of the measurement.
