Default Yes they do!

After a great weekend on the tour of Florida ride with the DSCC, I loaded my Cobra in the trailer & headed back to Atlanta. Just because I had my Valentine out I hooked it up in my truck for the ride home. Coming out of a small town in S. GA, where the speed limit increased from 35 to 45, and then to 55, I got a "hit" on the detector & moved to the right lane while I started slowing down a bit. The poor guy behind me stayed on the gas & got nailed by one of Georgia's finest. He was doing about 55 in a 45, and the 55 speed limit sign was about 200 yards ahead. He probably knew the road & knew the speed limit change, just got in a bit of a hurry.

That's where the radar detectors serve a useful purpose. As for laser, just get ready to "pay the man"
