And for those of you that are implying that your eyes are your best defense - you are partly right.
For those that are implying that LASER will own you - you are completely wrong.

The number of times I've been saved when painted by LASER at super-legal speeds has more than paid for the detector.

LASER is fast, but cops are slow. It is your reaction time against his.

A question here..

How does the radar detector work??

How does it help you avoid the traffic ticket??

NgoRX8 06-19-2006 03:10 AM

nothing beats your eyes unless your asleep. it detects radar signals which could be possible cops waiting for you to fall into their range.

I work nights to and its funny cause I do about 80-85 the whole way home on the highway (32 miles roughly) and generally pass the same cops everyday in the same spot. Most the time I slow down but I've gone by them before at 75-80 where is normally a 65 and they don't even budge. Often wonder if they know me by now since I pass them everyday at roughly the same time. :dunno:

I don't like to advertise the detector by having it visible in the windshield, so I attached it to the visor. It is set back a bit, but works fine.
Also, the EZpass doesn't show since its behind the center windshield mask.

HAHA, I got that same feeling reading over this thread. Oh well, they are expensive but it would be nice to have for highway driving. But, for city, your eyes are the best thing against the police.
