Yes and no.

If everyone is driving within the speed limit then the laser will not be fired and you will get no warning before you are done.

OTOH is the laser is used I get a 5 click burst on my RLW but this is not site specific. I have picked up laser warnings up to 5km away. The effect is that you drive like on eggshells as you have no idea where the laser gun is.

As for driving within the speed limit - I contend that that can be simply dangerous. Certainly I am not condoning breaking the speed limit but driving at 35 mph or less behind someone on the open road who is determined not to exceed 40! well!
