Since when did this happen? I was in the car with my friend coming down NFB between Sheridan and Kenmore (If you speed here you are dumb and deserve a ticket) and I saw a Tonawanda cop shooting laser in his car. I didn’t know they had laser what other secrets do they have??? ---

> [@bigwoode](#): > > I usually go 5 over around there, didn’t know it was a huge trap! Its pretty bad… there are tons of places to hide and both Amherst and Tonawanda PD are looking to get people. I drive down here coming home from school every day and theres usually either someone radaring or someone pulled over. ---

Yeah its been around for a while the escorts pick the signal up but usually when its picked up your pretty much fucked already.

I was under the impression that State Police in NY were the only police trained to use LIDAR guns. Actually, i’m almost positive this is the case ---
