I disagree, if you've got revenue generation going on on a busy highway most of the time the cop is shooting several people a minute, looking for the biggest fine. A higher end radar detector will pick that up well in advance and give you time to avoid a potential ticket. Now if the radar detector has been off for some time and you are the lucky winner there's not much you can do about it. That has never happened to me and I'm almost 35 now.
I have the new Passport 9500ix which has GPS. If it picks up the same signal three times it filters it out and you never hear it again. It also tells you of any red light or speed cameras too, in fact it warned me this week of a red light camera ahead.
