Don't ask me how I know.

The best thing about laser though, is that it isn't used in moving vehicles. It must be stationairy in order to operate. Generally the cops are sitting on the side of the road holding the laser gun, or they are running a sting operation and have it on a tripod. It's a line of sight device, the cop actually has to look through a scope to aim it.
It's rare, but occasionally you could pick up reflections of laser from cars ahead of you. This reflection will make your detector go off.
Just treat laser as, if it goes off you're busted.
I've also never read any reviews of any radar or laser jammer that actually worked. Snake oil, just save your money.
