Different type of post but do any of you use radar detectors while driving? I use to use an Escort Passport but haven't in years. Recently I just got lucky with a speeding ticket, 40 in a 25, not a school zone. This has happened a few times and I know my time has run out on this.
The LEO's are everywhere locally and are told to hammer the locals and not the tourists. This frustrates the hell out of me, especially since I donate to all of the local Agencies. Because of that I was told they are being told to not let the locals get away with flashing the card(s) and ticket.
Anyway I was thinking of getting an installed detector, the expensive ones. Figuring it will pay itself off in due time. I have lead foot and can't seem to fix it. The speed zones around me switch like crazy. I leave my house, 25, next road 40 then 25 then back to 35, next road same thing, 25 then 50 then 35 to 25 and so on. I jus tend to go the same speed when no one is in front of me and it always is way to fast.
Anyway, anyone using something locally Or just don't bother?
