i dunno about that particular one, but really, the best thing you can do is watch your speed. i know it sounds corny, but that is the safest route. i have a radar detector, and sometimes cops in the area will be tricky, and turn on their radar as you are coming up on them, with no time to slow down. and if you get pulled, and the radar is sitting on the dash..no way you are getting out of the ticket. :P

^^Yup watch your speed, its safer for you, its safer for me driving by you, and with gas ripping us off you get better gas mileage.

Sorry,

I use one because I travel a lot...and its kind of nice to be able to cruise 5-10 over and not have to worry about some a-hole police officer writing you for 10 over...in the south they will...and it works great...btw its a cobra something...something...lol i cant remember the exact name but cobra makes a quality product
