at the same time radar is going to do nothing against tricky cops, they wont use radar to pull you over, or they'll turn it on last minute

most smart cops done leave their radar on all the time, so you're screwed anyways

that being said i have a v1, i don't speed, i go 70 on the highway, its more just nice to know some of the time when they're around

I have a SR7 and it's great. And here in Atlanta, I was rev'ed on by a Dodge Charger SRT-8. We ended up racing and I beat him. Then he turned on his lights that were inside the front window. I was like oh sh*t. Then he drove by and gave me the thumbs up.

I got the escort 9500i with GPS as well, and I'm really happy with it. It lets you flag false alerts. But it so rarely gets a false alert that I haven't been bothered enough to lock any out. On my 25 mile drive I get 1 false alert, and one real from one of the "You're current speed is 70mph" signs.
Also all of my real alerts have been Ka band. Anyone see a cop actually using K or X band?

Here's what i found online: http://www.lectlaw.com/def/e024.htm

It's just a fine line of getting away from a ticket.

V1 no questions.

The arrows are worth the extra cash spent. Overtime, it'll pay its costs.

Are you a lawyer? People tend to throw around the term "entrapment" a lot without knowing what it means. Simply providing an opportunity for you to commit a crime is not entrapment.
