The laser gadget is almost certainly using a pulsed beam rather than a
continuous one, and picking pulses out of a continuous background is not
generally a difficult problem.  Car headlights don't even show the 120Hz
modulation of normal AC lighting, much less pulses short enough to confuse
something with nanosecond-range resolution.
