I paid $1200 for my dector/jammer and got a ticket last week. After he wrote the ticket and started his bike to leave, then it went off.

RE: radar detector
Only 2 places have "illegal" detectors... VA and Washington DC. The rest just see the detector and don't give you warnings if you get nailed. And I drive through VA with mine up all the time 
Your saying the only 2 places detectors are "illegal" are DC and VA. The rest of them will just give you a warning if they see it?

Detectors are great on the highway, freeway, expressway, turnpike, etc.....
you need to have one that covers all the bands. In the city most cops use Lasers. these have to be aimed at a vehicle and if he hasn't triggered it on another car you'll never know it's there. Trust me I know......

RE: radar detector
I want to gte a radar detector, but i live in Canada were it is illegal everywhere to have one. Are there any detectors on the market that cops cant pick up with there radar guns. I am wondering because my buddy used to have one and a cop picked him off and not only gave him a ticket for speeding, but another one for owning a detector. The ticket came to around 600$. Or how do cops know you have one, because he had his in his trunck and as soon as the cop came up to the door, he told my buddy that he was getting an extra ticket for owning a detector. Anyways can anyone tell me how they can detect your radar detector, and if there are any out there that they cannot detect.
Thanks.
Thanks.
