Why do lorry drivers and some van drivers put cds in-between the windscreen and the dashboard? Some I’ve seen behind the front grills also. Is it some urban myth going around that they stop you getting caught out in speed traps? It’s the only logical explanation I can think of. Someone must be able to shed some more light on this as it has been doing my head in now for ages!

I heard they were to reflect the laser in speed-traps, but this seems incredibly improbably to me.

LMFAO that would explain why the riced-up Cav had one behind his grill.

Once seen something in (please forgive me) Max Power(not mine i may add) about a mirror type disc that revolves and is supposed to reflect laser speed trap detectors so that they can't accurately measure your speed, you fit this silly gimick behind you front grill and then you wont get nicked and yes pigs,get the pun, will fly and theres a man in the moon, also

Also i think if you get pulled with this device fitted you get nicked anyway.
