Yes, it works fine on all but 1 gate for me where it is erradic. Lot's of variables including the height of your mirror (vs the height of the gate pad) as well as if you have a lot of "electronics" in it. I had one car that wouldn't even pass the signal. They work great but you will have to change your driving habits. You can't just fly through the gate. You have to come to a stop as close to the pad as safely as you can and breath slowly. You'll find that most of the "problematic" gates are in the older northern areas of the Villages where the pads are lower (and older).
