I haven't owned one in prolly 20 yrs. do people still use them ? Anyone have a recommendation

Gonna take a quick road trip to Reno this weekend

It's about a 7 1/2 to 8 hr trip

My record is 6 hrs 10 min

God's radar is always watching, even on lonely stretches of highway. He doesnt cotton to speeders.

thow shall not speed ain't part of the ten commandments ........so I'm good

They Don't Have Radar Detectors Any More.

They Have Ticket Alarms.

When You Hear & See Your Alarm Go Off, It's Announcing That You Are About To Get A Ticket !!

Dang Things Are No Longer Effective Since They Came Out With Laser-Type Instant Radar.

So you'll put everybody else's families at risk trying to beat a personal record?

Pretty much worthless these days, radar is way too good for them..

They don't work as well with today's radar unit's. I love them, I confiscate everyone I see when I stop someone for speeding who has one. It's amazing how many disappear as you approach a vehicle.
Really funny.

Thanx guys , I think I'll just roll without one if they're not that effective . Looks like they are several hundred dollars .

I haven't had a ticket in close to 20 yrs .

Not much traffic on my route , with a lot of open desert . Just roll it on till you see a car / possible smokey

back when I drove around in a service van early mid 90s , you would see lights flashed by another tech in a service van and you knew to check your speed and look for the cop.

now I don't think anyone even understands what it means when you flash your lights. my personal vehicle looks like a service truck yet , white F150 with a ladder rack and a truck number because it is a retired service truck.

with the new laser speed detection it is on for a fraction of a second then off again and it doesn't emit the same radiation so really not effective any more.

I don't speed hardly ever , I like to be the least exciting thing on the road , a speeding ticket is a waste of money that could have been spent on a new gun or traps.

Not in Texas, bud.

What State your from doesn't matter in Missouri!!!!!

Drive careful. Bud

I made your post more truthful.

Radar detectors are legal in Missouri in passenger cars so if you are confiscating them FlyingFinn is correct, theft is theft if done buy the police or some scumbag.
Valentine is the best but cost may be higher then the fine.

I used to drive way to fast and put myself and others in danger. I am not proud of that. I have slowed down as I have aged and in 10 years or so I can see me being the guy I complained about in my younger years. Just remember you are not the only one allowed the privilege to drive the road.

Save the racing for the track.

Get some body in the airforce to build you a jammer

NO HE DIDN"T

Radar jammers are illegal in Missouri, Illinois, and all 50 states. Drivers of commercial motor vehicles are not allowed to use radar detectors, radar jammers, or laser jammers in Missouri, Illinois, or any other state.
I didn't say passenger cars!!!!!!!

Have a nice day.

I have one in my truck and it's saved me tickets. No matter how good the radar,if they are checking others a head of you you will pick it up way ahead of time before they get you and you can slow down. I don't speed a lot any way it's mainly for the pecker head that wants to hand out tickets for 5 or 6 miles over the posted speed.

Question Officer Barnes,

As A Law Enforcment Officer,

How Do You Detect If Someone Is Deploying A Radar Jammer In Their Vehicle ?

Do You Have Radar Jammer Detection Devices, and Do You Have Probable Cause To Search For Said Jamming Devices If You Detect Them, And Do You Need A Warrant To Search A Vehicle For Suspected Radar Jammers ?

Most police are good honest people, others have brain issues and the big me little you syndrome. Pull that we me and you will be working at Burger King.
