I should add that I got a ticket a couple years ago on the Goodguys tour going across Nevada. My Valentine was on but it blasts so many false alarms I just tuned it out. I'm sure someone has that pic from the Goodguys Gazette of me and the state trooper out in the desert.

Frankly -- I'm shocked we haven't been hauled to jail..... LOL

I stand corrected.
What I was recalling was the illegality of laser jammers, not detectors.

This from the Google...
About the specific radar detector laws, there are ten states which have state laws banning laser jammers: Texas, Utah, Virginia, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Minnesota, California, Illinois, Colorado and Tennessee. Radar detectors are actually legal in those states excluding Virginia.

Laser is regulated by the FDA!
