Radar Detector Laws

[SMHassassin]

there's also a cheaper option than buying one of these things. follow the speed limit. just saying.

[LMLFE]

Hmmm I saw a vid of a guy pulled over in Cali nd fined 175$ for carrying a radar detector and it was on highway...sooo

[FloridaStateDeputy]

Thank you Roy!!

[swimmies10]

wow, had no idea about the windshield laws in Minnesota, Il make sure not to do that again. Thanks for the info

[tyguy1155]

Wow! Never knew there was so much to the law with these things! Thanks for keeping us informed Roy.

[MrHotroddoc]

yeah don't come on a military base with a radar detector. I got a ticket for it.

[ALiixBx]

Great Vid.. Thank you!!

[IPGAuto]

Radar is crap. It scans like 5 or 6 cars and you can get pulled over anyways, even though you weren't speeding. Its a bunch of shit, radar, laser is all a money making scam. Tickets are all about money. Courts are all about money. Traffic school is all about money. Jeeze, what a bunch of shit. Click it or Ticket. They could care fucking less about your safety, its yet another way to ticket and steal more worthless money from the people. Im not for speeding, but less for all the taxation and fees

[xXxS4v4g3xXx]

are they illegal everywhere in Canada

[mikey77771]

@xXxS4v4g3xXx No they are legal in BC, AB, and SASK

[ray8u123]

I wonder if there is some device that would work with a laser jammer to give off a fake number to the ladars

[pipinos1976]

In Greece it's illegal to use RD without the proper license which of course never appeared in our legal system...

Jammers are totally forbidden, especially radar jammers where, except from the jamming effect, the use of the spectrum is under license.

[atomikrobot300099]

Great info!

[BcsDaBomb]

yep its official that sucks

[okcbrotha]

Hey Roy I live in Virginia and I look up the 3 radar dector that is immune to the newest RDD and they are pretty expensive. Since you post this video have you heard of anymore (less expensive) ones coming to the market?

[lfsracer79]

@okcbrotha There are no cheaper ones and probably won't be for a while. The Bel STi Driver and the Escort Redline cost 470-500 dollars and they are definitely worth the money. You just need a couple of saves and the RD has paid for itself. Think about the insurance.

[sx4dude2013]

very useful info!!

[izimmm]

informative...thnx

[themiz1554]

good stuff

[emtforhim]

great information Roy!

[jacobennis]

radar roy is the man

[Heavymentill]

Good info.

[SuperDuckiee]

@okreneok not everywhere. There are certain provinces that they are not illegal in. Check online.

[thelucky225]

Very informative

[WTFWJD014]

DAMNIT I hate VA! hahaHA F off government!

[adamstrader12]

i've been popped on a military base....not a good thing to do.

[BigDH28]

Radar Detector Detector! F ME! Cops always win :(

[rayhan007]

Hey Roy, I have a small question for you. i recently bought XRS-9400 Cobra. I am wondering.. is this device suppose to catch emergency vehicles? Because mine didnt, even tho it was really close to a cop car. Now is radar detector suppose to catch Any emergency vehicles or only emergency vehicles that are equipped with radar device like laser guns..?

[radarroy]

@rayhan007 Radar detectors only detect police radar guns when they are turned on

If you're asking about Cobra's strobe alert, it will detect that too if they have the transponder

[Sjark92]

@radarroy Do they also detect police radars that are hidden(not handheld by Police man)?

Never(never ever!) seen a Police Man used a Radar Gun, that's why I'm asking...

[rmzrider315]

since the date you have made the video have any of the laws changed

[radarroy]

@rmzrider315 No recent law changes

[sidehop]

Roy, I thought Escort Redline was also undetectable?

[hanrickjones]

He Is A Idiot he just want money on his blog as well he is not tellying anything but stupid crap that want to share and what not but lawsuit will not let me do so send be ur email and i'll send it to ur email address, spammer

[MegaMichael1973]

Oh2ffy then why are u watching this video? Omg are u planning on breaking the law lol

[OH2FFY]

The best way to prevent problems with police with radar guns is DON'T SPEED !

Only a person that knowingly and willingly plans to break the law would ever consider buying a radar detector.

gregW:-) OH2FFY

[jkdbjjconnection]

Can you do a video on Canadian laws?

[zztops08]

Can you explain to me how a device made to only receive, can transmit an RF signal? I'm pretty sure that's impossible.

[radarroy]

@zztops08 the oscillators leak RF and that is what is detected by RDDs.

[code3traffic]

Can you elaborate on the laws regarding commercial vehicles weighing less than 10,000 lbs and/or those crossing state lines?

[radarroy]

@code3traffic the federal law only address more that 10,000 pds so it would be legal

[everynamesbeenused]

Radar Roy...Do you have a radar installed in that right ear?

[Cichlid180]

hey roy.... I have a 9500 ix does this send out a rf signal???

[radarroy]

If you mean does it leak RF, yes it does

All detectors do with the exception of the STi, Redline and 9500ci

[Cichlid180]

Oh on .... i though since the ix is alittle bit new... it would be undercover ... lol thanks

[Cichlid180]

Why wouldnt escort make the 9500 ix the same as ci with the non leak RF?!

[radarroy]

@Cichlid180 because it would double the price of the detector and make it too big. The ci ueses two antennas

[radarroy]

@Cichlid180 it leaks RF, so it would be detected by a Spectre, so yes

[Cichlid180]

You are allowed to have a Radar detector in Alberta BC and Saskatchewan

laser jammers are allowed in only BC alberta!

[MariannasCosmetics]

w8 sooo whats the point in geting a jammer if im speeding cops laser me detect i have a jammer and pull me coz i was speeding :S

[radarroy]

@MariannasCosmetics hopefully you would slow down so the officer would know you were speeding if you jammed the laser signal

[PACER2320]

great vids

[lJavieR7l]

Thanks!

Now i know that they are Legal in WA

[okreneok]

are they illegal everywhere in Canada ?

[BlazerVette]

Ontario they can seize it... OPP has the spectre's he was talking about... And basically any D.O.T. has a detector (anywhere in canada), so be careful around them...

[WasteTimeJerking]

so i shouldnt get one? how about a jammer?

[mike5555ca]

@okreneok can't have it in B.C and Manitoba

[radarroy]

Thanks, just added annotations...

[robm425]

Yeah I get the same questions very frequently as well.

You should add a annotation at 5:38 to correct yourself Roy cause you said 9500i which is not invisible to RDDs but the 9500 Ci is....
