I've ran a jammer/shifter/parking aid/countermeasure or w.e you want to call it, and I install them.

Owning a Laser Jammer is legal, having it installed is also legal, but the operation of the jammer is illegal as you are obstructing the officer from doing his duties. I have yet to personally hear of anyone being charged with obstruction in BC because of operating a jammer, it may or may not have happened.

One client of mine was pulled over for speeding (ironic), and when he went to go reach for his insurance papers in the glove box, the officer saw the unit, and wrote a VI box 1 to have the Jammer removed from the glove box. The laser heads could all stay, but the control unit had to be removed. Another incident was when a 997 911 Turbo jammed a police laser unit, and he was pulled over anyways because the officer suspected the car had a jammer equipped. This was because the imbecile didn't switch off the jammer after he slowed to an appropriate speed. The officer found the control unit in the car, and took his knife to it and cut it out and kept it.

Why run a jammer? Because when I'm doing 75 in a 60 zone in traffic flow, I like the piece of mind that I can slow down right to the speed limit when being tagged by a cop. I probably wouldn't get pulled over for doing 75, but its just better to do 60. And before a smart ass says why not just do 60, you try driving everywhere with the needle at exactly the posted limit while traffic flies by you.

Some of the people I've installed these units for are under the impression that they can simply do 180 everywhere because a cop has no evidence of speed. One person I know spent nearly 5,400 on jammers and detectors, and then did 160 near UBC and lost his license the day after. Officer clocked the obvious speeding car, either got the speed or error code and then pulled the car over anyways.

If you are buying a jammer thinking that speed limits no longer apply, I'm glad to take your money and watch you get caught in the end. If your going to be speeding, use common sense and don't rely on equipment to get you out of it.

Is it worth it? Meh, on the fence about it, they do work, and they have saved me when I definitely deserved a ticket. But the costs of good jamming equipment and risk of getting caught is something you should consider.

I saw someone mention radar jamming earlier, that will land you a criminal charge instantly and huge fines or jail if you are caught.
