Looking for info on Laser Jammer and install

I'm in the Atl area and I am interested in getting some sort of laser protection installed. I currently have a Escort Max if that provides any type of integration with a jamming system. Can anyone point me in the right direct or put me in contact with a shop that specializes in this?

haha no, I'm slow. Cops in my area just don't play fair. Clocked me with laser going 60 in a 45. Pulled me over right in front of the sign that says "55 mph". They set up a lot of speedtraps in areas where it looks to be 55 and everyone is going 55-60. I get pulled over "cuz racecar". If he only knew his wife's Camry has more power than me. lol

Especially now that 285 has the changing speed limits. For most of the time it is 65 now but they drop it 55 by Peachtree industrial and a cop is always sitting there

Use a GPS that warns you of changes in speed limits? Just get in the habbit of looking out for cops and for.known spots in your daily commute? Not the options you are looking for but at less it will save you some crooked cop trouble.

AL Priority 866-922-5872 has the best unit on the market , trust me they jtg against the dreaded Dragoneye Compact which is what Atlanta Area PD uses
Atlanta is very well equipped
Avoid Laser Interceptor until they decide to update their firmware to handle the Dala.

I'm no scientist, but I don't think you can "jam" a laser. Pretty sure you would have to make your car non-reflective, or find something that would disperse the laser (or something to that effect). IIRC, LiDAR usually gets bounced off of front license plates, headlights or some other reflective surface.

But I would check my local laws before I did anything to circumvent Johnny Laws attempts to keep the peace.

A voice from the inexperienced, again,

1. I do it all the time
2. Other than Veil, nothing else works
3. Please read up before making statements like those above.
Florida and Georgia do not having laws against jamming LIDAR, and the AL Priority doesn't give the LEO a "jammed code" on their LIDAR speed devices.

Or you could drive at or below the speed limit. Just saying...

Thanks @tonystewart. That's the type of expertise I was looking for. I will look for more info on that unit after work. Do you know of any shops in the Atl that can do a clean install?

@Captain Caveman, I am a safe driver and always pay attention to the posted speed limits. Sometimes there are cops sitting in a known speed trap and are there to produce revenue. It's for money not safety. Maybe next time you can present proper information or experience instead of just throwing your misguided 2 cents into the thread. Just saying...

I'm assuming that is this: http://www.laserveil.com/ which does what I said you would probably need to do. Or am I wrong?

Not trying to start a pissing match, but OP if you know about the speed trap areas why not just avoid them or slow down?
