RIP, the reason they like to clock folks at 500ft vs 3000ft is no advanced warning on your equipment ie rd, laser jammer. And the closer you are to the officer, the harder it is to jam lidar. I did pick up laser on my Bel STi from a local cop who was shooting lidar from between 200-400ft. Keep in mind though, the Bel STi was mounted mid windshield. Still surprised it went off though.
