i would pulse the lasers on one side with a 555 or a micro, then recieve that pulse on the otehr side with a second micro, that way you wont have any wired going across the road, and oterh light sources wont interfere with the results...

You wouldn't need the laser to be on the other side of the road, just put the emitter and the detector on one side, seperated by a few inches or whatever. A car goes by, you'll get a reflection. You may need a bit of a wide angle detector for this though. And make sure that there isn't a mirror or something like that across the road...
with lasers, i dont think he would get much of a reflection off of the tires (if the sensor is that low) but it would probably work off of the body... he could put a mirror on the other side, and then look for the missing signal...
