My record hasnt been clean since the first month of driving when i was 16. I still have another year and 2 months before i have a chance of being clean. lets see if i make it haha, my insurance guy like me though. Never had a claim yet gets raped every month in insurance
The only ticket I have on my record so far is a street racing ticket i got thrown out because he didnt write a speed and the judge thought it was profiling, thank god
It took me a long ass time to get mine clear and I wasnt even in my own car 905% of the time it was the bright red company car. Im currently on probation cuz I got pulled over 4 days before I went to germany cuz the cop said I was "flying". Where I was going I didnt need roads.
hey dave you better back up we dont have enough road to get up to 88.
i'm just lucky i guess... i haven't gotten a ticket in like 7 years.
but i'd say a good radar detector is a must like an escort 8500 (or their new gps model) or a V1. it seems like almost all of the troopers and police departments around the twin cities just use K or Ka band radar. the only time i've seen any using laser was about 30 minutes south of lakeville on i-35. but for that you just need a laser jammer.![]()
pop radar is worthless because all the new detectors see it, and the cops have to switch over to regular mode to actually pull your speed.
most city cops do use K/KA, but once and a while I'll see a statie using laser.
All I know is the v1 Anita and I share has saved our butt many times![]()
yeah, if you get a good detector (escort 8500, bel 65, or V1) they all do a pretty good job against pop. any other radar detector probably isn't going to see it. there are tons of crappy ones out there that just can't come close to performing like they claim to.
thats fascinating though... i think i've only ever encountered pop like once.
