Anyways, today I went to the gas station down the road and when I came over the hill the STI screamed KA hit and I saw a state trooper SUV parked at Subway about 150 yards away, I swung in the parking lot and I noticed that the trooper was inside enjoying his lunch and the detector was screaming at me still. I remembered reading your post and thought I'd ask.
tl;dr Can roving radar be set to always on?
A lot of times, cops will leave their radars or cars on, constantly emitting just to scare those that Do have detectors because they go off and slow down... So it's a passive way to slow down speeders.

Mine has gone off a few times from parked cars with no one in them. Doesn't need to be anything super schnazzy or new fangled radar system... just a cop who wants to mess with us commonfolk.
