Radar Detector?

I've been around a year or two, actually over 30 of them. One thing I figured out some years ago, I make my living with that little rectangular piece of plastic called a CDL. Why the heck would I want to jeopardize it for something so trivial and stupid? Running legal presents much less stress, also. So why would I want to cause myself more stress, by doing something I'm not supposed to be doing?

 

Aw cause your a yes man and scared lol

 

if you had a radar detector you would've known he was there

 

got stopped in va today. cop accused me of having a radar detector. wanted to search my truck. i told him i wouldnt give permission but i wouldnt stop him from searching. so while he searched his partner stood out side with me saying how they have a machine that can pickup the signal. i said thats great you should go and catch the car that you detected. after 20 mins. of searching couldnt find one. he tried to scare me by saying i could be arrested for lying. i looked him straight in the eye and said." for the 5th time i dont have a detector in my truck". he was getting upset and so was i. he finally let me go. as i was pulling back onto the road i reached down and pulled the detector out of my boot and put it back on the dash. the really sad part was i wasnt speeding or doing anything wrong. and i didnt lie the detector wasnt in my truck it was in my boot!

 

Better still, I didn't CARE that he was there

It concerned me not one bit.

 

Superhauler that's a funny story sounds like something id do.what detector did you have? My bel I think it was a 890 they never picked up had Virginia pull along side me with a radar detector detector never got popped now buddy had a cobra and got nailed the first week with one

 

it's an old cobra, about 20 yrs old. got a little tape on it to help hold it together. but still works good. the cop was one of those wannabe super cops. he just didnt ask the right questions. he was pretty fustrated when he let me go!

 

Lol yea the cobras they can pick up.read an article in the truckers news it was the Maryland dot saying how in their scales on I70 they can pick up bird dogs even if there off but plugged in so of course next time I pulled in there I left my bel plugged in and on cause I knew they were just trying to scare drivers needless to say they never picked it up

 

Anyone who spends the money on a Rocky Mountain Radar product, please let me know, cause I've got a bridge to sell you as well. Colorado State Patrol proved about 10 yrs ago that all of their "jammers" are junk and don't actually work. Do a little research on jammers, you'll find that all Jammers are illegal in the US and to work the way the claim to work and do what they claim to do, would require more power than your cig. lighter. Now, scramblers, like those sold by Escort and Valentine do work, and work quite well, just don't get caught with one.

 

And if you are running within the legal limits, you don't need to.
