    Oh and response to your question, the whole reason for getting the ALP system and making sure my radar detection is up to par is because of highway driving. I'll be taking several trips from Tampa to Chicago and back within the next few months. I've already made this trip 3 times (roundtrip) within the past year so I have a decent idea on what to expect. From Tampa to the GA state line I have not experienced many cops. From Fl-GA state line to Atlanta I'm VERY careful. Cops everywhere, especially on bridges. Rarely ever go more then 9 over the limit here. Then after Atlanta I'm still careful in GA. After I get to Tenn. that's when I am able to cruise. Tenn and Kentucky seem to only use c/o radar Ka band on the areas I drive. Then Illinois is a mix between c/o Ka band and laser.

    Yes, I do - to both questions.

    Exercise great caution when traveling in FL & GA, b/c both States use DragonEye Lidar guns which are a serious threat. I believe both States are "back Shooters" meaning targeting you after you have passed by their hideout location. Just b/c you have the best sys. installed, never consider yourself 100 % protected from getting caught if you drive above PSL. Law Enforcement Officers (LEO's) usually have years of experience & are very good at what they do.

    Do you know the procedure to employ once you are targeted w/ Laser, & how to avoid attracting attention to yourself when the encounter initially occurs ?
