Radar detectors?
It is. Someone tested it and it doesn't do anything within distances that mean anything.

It's analogous to Chris with his vintage Iroc camaro down in Hollywood. He informed us that the Iroc is made of the same alloy metal as the stealth bomber, and as long as he waxes and washes his car everyday like they do on the stealth bomber, the radar bounces right off LOL.

Just listened to that and I'm dying. I guess I'll just start heading to the gym and pick up some temp tattoos.

Okay, perhaps I should have said "stationary" instead of "fixed"... the point being that, unlike radar which can be used in a moving patrol car, LIDAR must not be moving.
But no, you are wrong about evading. You'll find that courts hold that a driver must know that an officer has issued an order to stop (by lights and sirens, hand signal, voice command, etc.) in order to satisfy the "intention" part of the crime. In fact, that's what probably happened in the street racing situation... the police showed up with lights and sirens and the racers fled. Merely equipping a car with equipment to prevent such an order does not meet the burden - you have to be ordered to stop and then fail to do so for it to be a felony. By your logic, just having a radar detector could be construed as evading - clearly a preposterous idea. If you doubt that, ask a criminal lawyer.
