Radar Detector

Nothing will really help.

This guy does a pretty good job reviewing them.

Many years ago I used the original Valentine and liked it, but I don't know about the updated one.

 

VALENTINE ONE GEN2 599.00

I have this in both my sports cars. Highly recommend. Has been very accurate thus far.

I have been loving my Escort Redlines for two decades. I am alerted to radar or laser before the cop is visible.

I have Valentines (V1 & 2). They have been great. The new one is better... less false alarms. No interactions with other car's radar cruise control. Once you have the arrows.... you'll never go back!

 

You gotta look at the site I gave you!

Yes and no.

For the really sneaky "traps" - cops hiding in the bushes with either instant-on or laser, and nobody else around to get hit and generate a signal - that's true.

The reason I use a detector religiously is that the cops around here literally drive around with their Ka-band blazing 100% of the time on normal patrols. So if I am careful anytime I get a Ka band hit, I have at least mitigated the risk of doing something blatantly stupid around a cop I may have not noticed, who may or may not even be looking to catch a speeder but would be forced to respond.

In other words, the detector can't really save you from a speed trap (If no-one else is around) but it can save you from yourself!
