The end result was still the same - I picked up noise.

I have NEVER been ticketed from laser. And most of the small towns in DE had it.

Then came the LTI 20/20 fiasco. The early systems had SERIOUS problems... They had to be fix mounted on a tripod for best accuracy. Then, if the car being aimed at, hit a dip, the beam would change from the bumper to the windscreen and the numbers would change DRAMATICALLY.

In a court in NJ several years ago, an atty picked up a 20/20 and aimed it at the wall... then moved it a few inches and a speed was registered. The logic behind how it clocked speed were entirely wrong.

Then comes the fun part... LTI was part owned by - get this - GEICO!!! GEICO then took their investment return in the form of lidar guns. They then GAVE the guns to small towns all across America... the goal? To catch GEICO insured and raise their rates!!

Lovely.

The court results in NJ caused the Delaware State Police to suspend usage of LIDAR. They made their investment in Ka.

I was working at the Delaware AGs office and State Police during this period.
