My brother-in-law being a highway patrol has tought me a couple things. I baught a detector from wal-mart. He advised me that if i got one make sure i get something that can be pulled from the window and hidden easily because: If you get pulled over and your only doing a few mph over the speed limit, if they no you are using a detector they will write you a ticket anyway just to piss you off...and becuase they can. He also said that most( not all) detectors only work if the radar is on all the time and if a cop turns it on after he is pass you, it is too late you detector won't help you. That's just my 2 sense worth...
