So i leave my car at taco bellf or two hours last night and someone pried the window open, ripped it out and stole my amp. a 650 dollar rockford 2400 watts. i bought it yesterday and was on my way home from work. she was gonna push my 3 r types. nothing police can do because i guess when you fingerprint cars it messes up the electrical system with the graphite. i am so pissed i just wanna cry, they basically took 650 dollars out of my hand. it was 6 hours old. it had to be someone i know because they didnt touch my 400 dollar valentine one radar detector or my 400 dollar panasonic cd player. they went straight to the amp. i hate ppl who do this.

Congrats on getting your stuff back As for the picking up laser... I'm not so sure. I've never heard of that system, so I can't say it doesn't... but I'd highly doubt it, though can't rule it out. All I know about laser is that the cop picks out a target... places the beam on the car he wants, then pulls the trigger. The only system I'm familiar with is the sytem that the police use here... which does single out specific cars and won't pick up another car. I've asked my dad and a few other cops I know how they catch people speeding and listened to their stories. They'll sit on an overpass bridge over a freeway, pick out random cars, hit them with the laser, and if they're speeding, they'll radio ahead to a cruiser waiting just up the road. Then when the car passes the waiting cruiser, they get nailed. What happens is, people see the cruiser on the side of the road way back, so they slow down, not knowing that they were tagged about a mile or so back, long before they see the waiting cruiser. Maybe other departments have different systems, but if they don't, maybe you've just gotten lucky and don't know about it, but maybe not. If you know any cops see if you can test it... get them to tag you with it and see if you pick it up. The laser is the size of a pin dot... so I'd assume it'd be pretty tough to pick up, but I can't say it's impossible. heck, that's how I found out my speedometer is off by 3-5mph depending on how fast I'm going This post has been edited by CupCrazy38: May 28, 2004 - 5:06 PM |
