Didnt even know they still sold those

Oh yes they do, a YouTube by the name of vortex radar reviews the latest and best radar detectors on the market. Also radar detector forum, similar to reddit has a lot of users that are into radar detectors, so the demand for radar units is still quite high I would say. @Bluecollar18

I'm a speed queen.I don't have anything like a radar detector I think they are illegal here.Been stopped by the police for speeding but never had a ticket.
SW-User
You’re lucky, well the officer gave me a fine for going 12 over, after which made me say fuck the law and get a device which will alert me on police as well as redlight and speed cameras @tallpowerhouseblonde

@SW-User Luck was not a factor.I'm tall with long legs.That ticket disappears real quick.I do get told I should not drive with my feet bare.I have to tell the cops it's legal.
SW-User
Exactly I’m thankful you have your long legs going for you, that is your get out of citation card. As for me I need to be prepared . @tallpowerhouseblonde
Think they’re illegal here.. best to just use the cruise control
SW-User
I just cap myself at 9 above the speed limit. Nine you’re fine, ten you’re mine, as the saying goes.

I simply make sure I'm not the fastest on the road.

@QuixoticSoul Always have a rabbit lol

@Butterflydreams I've been riding my cop bike lately - with its extra-accurate police speedometer. No excuse if I get pulled over 😂

I just obey the speed limit.....it's easier.
SW-User
Apparently the police have radar detector detectors here. I wonder if you can get a radar detector detector detector 🤔 It'd sure have the police confused 🥴
SW-User
My detector lets me know about speed cameras as well, as now in Chicago by every school there is one. @SW-User
SW-User
@SW-User I don't mind them catching drivers who really speed and are dangerous, but when you get fined half your weekly income just for being 4kmph over the limit, that's just about making money i think.
SW-User
Yeah it’s bullshit@SW-User
I go with the flow - the cops dont bother me like they did when I just started to drive
Butterflydreams · 26-30, T
They feel pretty useless to me now. I guess it depends where you are and how prevalent laser is.
SW-User
Like I said if laser is being used more then laser jammers is what will save you from getting a fine. @Butterflydreams
Butterflydreams · 26-30, T
Yeah but I think say if you're the only car there and they see you jamming it, they can still give you a ticket w/o actually measuring the speed. I don't know the exact law tho. Best bet is to go at most 5-10 over and not even worry about it. Tho 10 could be pushing it lol
Isn’t it less expensive all around to follow the speed limit ? I haven’t driven in a long time now, but I never got a ticket.
SW-User
Not really as with me it gives me the peace of mind when I know where the police is hiding. @bijouxbroussard
I heard they are illegal in VA
SW-User
Yes they are. @MarmeeMarch
@SW-User prob in other states too
SW-User
@MarmeeMarch Not in Illinois, just laser jammers are illegal in my state, not detectors.
