    The antenna alignment is critical... if its not pointed correctly it will detect false targets. You might want to invest in a dashcam if you're having problems with your safety department.

    Ongaurd sucks, mine hits the brakes when i go under over passes, it bugs out very often and disables my cruise control until i stop the truck and restart it in an area with nothing infront of the truck for about a quarter mile. Not to mention it will slow me down when a car in the next lane over slows down, it dies in heavy snow, it reacts slower than a 91 year old at the wheel of a Cadillac and every once in a while it decides ive had an accident and disables my throttle for about 10 seconds.
