Passive Laser Defense
Passive laser defense products work by making your vehicle less friendly to police laser guns. Laser (or LIDAR)
is light. In order to measure your speed, the light has to reflect off your vehicle and back to the laser gun.
These passive products cover the areas of your vehicle that police are trained to aim for, generally your front
license plate or headlights, and make them less reflective. This generally gives you around 5 seconds to react
to a laser warning from your radar detector before the officer will get your speed. Five seconds doesn't sound
like much time, but compared to the 1/4 second it usually takes for a laser gun to measure you speed it is an
eternity.
Our recommended passive laser defense products are listed below.

Laser Veil is our most popular radar detector complimentary product, and for good reason! For years now, Veil
has proven itself to be an inexpensive way to protect yourself from a laser ticket. Laser Veil is a translucent
paint that is designed to be applied to your headlights. The range of a laser gun is reduced when targeting
areas to which Veil has been applied. Veil is obviously a great compliment to any radar detector, but it
is great for pairing with laser jammers as well. Combining Veil with a jammer reduces laser "punch through"
distances. The manufacturer does not recommend applying Veil to license plates, so a Laser Shield (below) is
recommended in addition to Veil in states that require a front license plate.

The Laser Shield is an anti-laser license plate cover. In states where a front license plate is required, the
plate is the primary target for police using laser guns. The Laser Shield works by making your front plate less
reflective and thus reducing the range of the laser gun and providing a moment for you to react to an alert from
your radar detector. If police do not get a reading from a license plate, they will typically pan up to the
headlight. For this reason, it is recommended that Veil (above) be applied to the headlights in addition to the
Laser Shield.
