If you had just a Valentine 1 you wouldn't have had to hear all that shit in your car and would still avoid the tickets. .. On top of that, you could use a regular Garmin to mark GPS points and still get full use of the GPS instead of just having a mirror.
This is just funny. I had one of those cobra detectors and was traveling down the expressway at 120 MPH. I had it on highway mode too. there was a cop parked on the left hand shoulder checking for speeders and the radar detector didn't respond until I was literally right next to him. Then it only beeped one time LOL. Luckily he didn't even try to catch me. I thought i was in hot soup for a min.
its good that you invest in a detector, but even just a simple google radar detector comparison you will learn that cobra detectors dont go very far... they are not even comparable. top dogs are bel, escort, and v1s.
Although you still got your ticket, you just verified that the system works. It also shows you that there are limits to how fast you can drive with the system. There's always risk, this device decreases that risk level.
A mile?! Do you really need over half a mile to slow down?
Even if you still got a ticket, if your able to slow down before they catch your reading, you might have saved yourself from a much more expensive ticket, or a reckless driving ticket.
it works perfectly to tell you where the redlight cameras are located. but It can't really help to avoid speed ticket.
I was driving 90 mph on the highway, then the 9500ix told me there was a cop ahead, then i slow down very quickly. but that's too late. the cop pop out, and gave me a ticket.....
well...if the 9500ix could warn me when i was 1 or 1.5 miles away from the cop, i would be safe.
if people are driving in speed limit. they don't really need a radar.
Did he laugh at you when he saw your radar? Or didn't even see it at all? I've heard they make comments or even laugh when they pull over someone with a radar on their windshield.
Grosse arnaque le xt 9500 est une véritable merde j'en ai fait les frais!!

All you need is two of them in unison. I am looking to upgrade to a 7.1 surround system, but (yikes) that means I need eight of 'em.
