can someone tell me of a radar detector that really works? i travel a lot and i need to fly down the highway sometimes so i really need a dependable one.
the four BEST radars in no particular order are the Escort Passport 8500 X50, the Valentine One (V1), and the Beltronics RX65 and the STi.
Do not rely on radar detectors 100 percent of time even with these. Cops use instant on radar that gets your speed quick and you'll radar will pick it up too late to slow down. Always use a "rabbit" (follow another speeding car!!) A rabbit sets off instant on traps first so your radar can pick it up.
To add further protection against laser, get a laser jammer. Not easy to pick the right one and not easy to install but its indispensable for jamming the cops laser gun so you have time to slow down. The radars have laser detection but its just as good as warning you to pull over.

i love my Bel Vector 995. but any radar detector for the price of $300 + is very very good. i got mine brand new on ebay for $200. this is something i didnt go cheap on, and its payed for itself about 10x over.

He said it Beltronics Vector series is really good. I get an average of 2 minutes early alert if he leaves the gun on. I have the 945. The 995 is great it is 6 times more sensitive than the 945.

Why does my radar detector go off when I get near a school bus?
Sep 17, 2007 by ese_wolfie | Posted in Other - Cars & Transportation
If I pass a school on the road, my radar detector starts to go crazy. Do they have some sort of radar emitting device specifically designed to make those with radar detectors go for their first instinct and slow down when it chirps? Or is it some sort of GPS (or something else) that they have,and having radar detectors go off is merely an attractive coincedence?
Just wondering. Thanks.
Wow I am shook no one actually knows why that already answered.
I DO KNOW WHY!!!! Police departments put old radar guns/ or now refered to as a radar drone. In school buses and in thes construction signs etc. To get detector users to slow down. Point being you get an alert you are more likely to slow down

“76 in a 65, I got him.” As I approached the vehicle on the passenger side and leaned in to speak with the driver, I started with my standard, “Good afternoon, I stopped you for exceeding the posted speed limit. May I see your license, registration and proof of insurance?” And then I see it. Affixed to the windshield just above the dash… a radar detector.
My next decision had just been made for me. A verbal warning is now out of the question. Premeditated speeding calls for a citation. No, not every officer out there holds the same opinion about radar detectors or about who receives a warning or who receives a citation.
There is no law here in California against having a radar detector in non-commercial vehicles. Radar detector use in commercial vehicles has been prohibited in the U.S. since 1995 and radar detectors are also illegal in most Canadian provinces. What the law does state is that no vehicle shall be equipped with any device that is designed for, or is capable of, jamming, scrambling, neutralizing, disabling or otherwise interfering with radar, laser or any other electronic device used by a law enforcement agency to measure the speed of moving objects.
Head Honcho of ACE Ace Norton comes this new video for Darwin Deez New York. Darwin Deez refers to team up, and their non compos mentis looking / singer-songwriter, who also plays guitar for Creaky Boards (the understanding that May / purposes have not been torn by Coldplay) . Without considering the appearances - and the bank, it takes about 10 minutes to absorb all the appearances here - Darwin Deez makes eccentric indie pop that feeds optimism.And with "radar detector," the lyrics are equally beautiful and promising, which sound like small details to you on a former relationship: "You and I go shopping and find what we always looking for / You and I go shopping and support cascade stomach sleeping mattress count. Darwin Deez recently completed a sightsee with Bishop Allen last year. From what I assign to offer, it is not uncommon to see the reach to do synchronized dances instead of podium jokes between songs, which seems odd, in theory, but it seems to engage in the vocation.
Norton, who also made of plastic clips for Simian Disco, She & Him, and Patrick Wolf, shot in a video that corresponds to the eccentricity down to the subsidiary, with many eye-popping color and whimsical adventures.
