First legit LIDAR hit in which I know I was the target

[awj223]

I live in SF and commonly drive to the south bay for work. How often do you get hit in the SF Bay Area? Why did it take you so long to kill your ALP and what is the method for doing so? Additionally, one you kill it how long does it stay off for?

I've been hit 2 times in the last year. This particular time, it took a while for me to kill because it was completely unexpected -- I was on a city street, not on the freeway, and I wasn't even going very fast. You kill by hitting ANY button on the control pad, and once you kill, it stays off for as long as you're continuing to be shot. When you are NOT shot for 2-3 seconds continuously, it'll cycle back to defense mode (using the ALP settings I use).

I think even as I passed the cop after killing the ALP, I'd try to shut it down just in case the cop follows me. To do this would you simply hold the left button down until it fully powers off?

If the cop follows you, they aren't going to be shooting laser at you since it can only be used stationary. You're fine letting the jammer recycle on its own.

Some of us are "lucky" and only get hit every 3-4 years.

Ahhhh good point. Then if you happen to get pulled over turn the car off and it kills the whole system. Sorry guys I'm a worry wart about getting busted with the system. If the cop notices the sensors I can show him that they're parking sensors since the system with GPS can be configured to turning laser off and doing parking sensors under a set MPH which is genius! There is no reason for him not to buy off on it.
