By the time I saw him, he would just measure my speed within a second and I wouldn't have a chance to react, but Waze warned me about him a mile in advance.

That's useful info. I always use Apple maps, will try out Waze and see how I get on.
What you say about laser speed traps makes sense, 300-400m is not long enough distance to react more so at highway+ speeds. Cheers
