    Radar Detectors

    I wouldn't want to spend more than $300, but I can't afford a ticket. Who's got some expertise on the subject?

    I have one, but I don't use it. You're better off not speeding. It's cheap, and 100% effective.

          How did I know I was going to get retarded answers like "don't speed." I don't need to justify my driving behavior. But if you think driving the speed limit all the time is reasonable or realistic, you're an idiot.

              I asked for expertise on the subject of radar detectors themselves, not how to drive to not get pulled over. You ever drive in morning traffic?

                I saw this episode of Mythbusters one time where they put this big rotating mirror on top of a car. It reduced the range at which the radar could detect it.

                    Thanks for endangering people on the road! I don't speed, and you're the idiot.

                      No it didn't. None of the things they tried worked.

                        Check the laws and see if radar jammers are legal in your state. If they are, buy one.

                          I don't endanger anyone, buddy. If you're not tailgating, where's the endangerment? There is a huge difference between driving over the posted limit and being reckless. I was pulled over for 71 in a 55 in the left lane with no one on the road. Who is in danger there? Was what I was donig wrong? I'm not getting a radar detector so I can drive 100+ and be an idiot, I'm doing it, mostly, so I can cruise with the rest of the left lane drivers and not have to worry about being picked off.

                            Yourself. It's not just for protecting others, it's for protecting you.
