Ok, who knows (not has been subject to hearsay) something about the way cops can and can't use lasers in their cars?

I have some questions:

1) Can they be used without being hand held and aimed manually by an officer?

2) If yes, can they be used as above when a car is moving? Does this require a second officer?

or

3) is the only POSSIBLE time a police officer can pick you up with a "laser" when he is holding the gun in his grubby little hands and aiming it directly at you by looking through the scope in a parked car or standing outside it?

(S)He has to hold it and aim it at a specific target. Fixed laser in a vehicle, to the best of my knowledge, is not a viable option, due to the narrow tight beam.
