There's so many variables with lidar that it's no guarantee of anything to run jammers, but I've had mine go off several times and haven't been pulled over (I deactivate them via the window lockout switch on my current car so that they can get a reading once I've slowed down).

The idea isn't to jam the lidar gun, it's to give yourself a second or two to slowdown then kill the system.

Car color, front plates, headlight design, type of gun and head placement and aiming are all factors. and some are using the latest tech which obviously performs different. But there's been enough testing out there to prove that they make some type of difference when installed correctly. And 1 ticket will pay for itself.
