Relax tweek. Nobody is trying to do anything illegal. I just wanted info from people about radar detectors. Not jammers or blockers or whatever else. We get it, you're a cop, therefore against them.Same thing with plate blockers. They are easily spotted with the naked eye, so have fun with that.
My job isn't to be an asshole, but to keep people safe. Quit being jackasses and do the right thing.
Remember the whole swine flu scare? More people die in auto accidents in a week, than in any 30 day period of when swine flu was at its peak.
It's sad when people think that they have to "beat the cops" at the risk of their own lives.

I've spoken to cops who like people to use radar detectors. Their position was anything that slows people down. Whenever that thing goes off people slow down and the road is safer for everyone. Also most cops realize you can only slow down so much between the time when it goes off and when you see the cop so people really speeding are still gonna get a ticket. The cops I know who don't like them are kind of pricks who see it as someone beating them like its a competition or something. Just my opinion though I really only know the local sheriffs.Tweek wrote:

It's not that I'm a prick, far from it, and I know that there are some people who just want to have them, however, most people just want them so that they can speed freely. I'm all about people doing the speed limit, but not by slamming on their brakes when their detector goes off, which is what almost always happens.

Well of course. It's a cat and mouse game. Always has been. It's just a lot easier for us "mice" if we have a detector. Especially if we are speeding either way.It's not that I'm a prick, far from it, and I know that there are some people who just want to have them, however, most people just want them so that they can speed freely.

I got no problem with this. I work a major highway thru my county and I don't even step on the break pedal for anything under 80mph unless you are doing something unsafe like cutting between cars or tailgating. -
