How do you see others gettting nailed with the V1?
A laser is not like radio and has a very tight wavelength. The beam doesn't refract off objects nearly as good as radar does. That's what allows you to pick up radar even if the gun isn't pointed at you.

The only way the V1 picks up laser is if it's turned on for a split second...
while it's zapping someone else. If you are alone on the road and it zaps you, the alarm goes off but it's too late.

I don't see how that's possible. Lasers are low divergent, coherent, photon sources.
I don't see how a V1 could pick up the photons from a laser that wasn't aimed directly at you.
