Does it block speed laser guns, if so would it still block them if the car isnt in cruise control mode?

(not that I ever drive too fast but in case somebody borrows the car and does)


You are talking about Two different Speed measurement systems.

Radar uses Radio Waves in the K, Ka, Ku and X Band

Laser Speed detection uses a laser beam which is invisible to the human eye approx 905nm.

The Adaptive Cruise Control emits a Radio signal in the 70GHz Band.


So in Short ACC Will not Jam or make you invisible from Laser or Radar Speed measurements by the Police.

Surely they use different systems to beam. The front of mine works linearly - in fact even on extreme bends it can speed the car up as the other car in front has went out of the beam. So I can't see its beam hitting a laser mounted up high.
