radar detector
 

Hello,
I am wondering if anyone is using a raday detector right now.
does radar detector really works?
I am thinking to get one, but I am not sure that is really gonna work.
any comments please.
thanks

I don't think it's worth going to prison for...

Edit:

Saw this on the webz:
Lucky bastards ...

I live in Virginia.
Booyah!

Florida.... Yes they do work! Get the Escort Passport, you can't with them.

Prison? LOL, that's why they call it Liberty! Then again, some of you get to drive a lot faster than we do, so maybe I'm not as free as I thought. :icon14:

Yes they do help. I have the passport 9500ix. It is great because of the redlight cameras and the gps filter which filters out the false alarms.

i have passport 9500ix. It is great for red light camera warnings and keeping track/removing false radar/laser signals especialy in the cities.
However, the Valentine One is doing a better job on dectecting radar and laser signals at greater distance too since it has double sensors but it does not have the red light warning system. For me, I would get the Valentine One since I don't speed in the cities but only on interstate highways/freeways. Out there, there is no red light cameras only cops with radar/laser guns. I need a system that can detect at greater distance.

they also work to identify infiniti's and other higher end cars with cruise with laser as well... :icon14:

Yes, they work. I have, and love, a Valentine One. It is hard wired so it powers on and off with the ignition and leaves no power cord in my view.

If you're in the market at least give the V1 a glance: Valentine One radar and laser detectors

man, I wish they didnt cost $400, I can think of so many more mods I can do with that...

Think about the money you can put toward mods when you're not paying off speeding tickets and higher insurance premiums ;)

Yes they do work! Buy the Passport Escort or Valentine 1. Don't waste your money on those radioshack or RCA radar detectors.

As for VA, I wouldn't F*ck around. The second we drove into Virginia last year and this is what we saw :ugh:

We turned our radar off right away.

thanks for all the responses and sorry for posting on the wrong section.

I do not speed in the cities either but highways/freeways, so V1 is the way to go?

Damn, Virginia does not mess around.

OP - If you want another/different perspective before you spend the money PM me.
