I suggest outrunning them.

Yes! Step on it when they are on to you! You can outrun(/drive) them. Preferably by emptying your uzi at the same time. You rock. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Does this work on laser radar? The highway patrol on Oahu apparently use laser. I've got an order in for "Blinder M-20 Xtreme" based on the reviews I read here.

Driving from Texas to Vegas to California to go to the 2005 Rose Bowl we mounted a valentine one in my car. We covered around 1000+ miles on the trip, and then double that for the return trip home.

Every single time we got a blip on the V1, sure enough the cop was down the road. Its coverage range is amazing. We must have seen at least 20 different cops on our trip. Plus the v1 also has a new remote adapter. So you can have the seperate piece light up where you set it on your dash, but the v1 hanging on your window doesn't light up, making it nearly impossible to see from inside the car.

So yeah, get one.

The way LASER works... usually by the time anything can detect it it's too late. So yes, they detect laser but it doesn't do you much good because laser doesn't scatter like radar

The Valentine One is hands down the king of radar detectors. I used a Passport fairly regularly when I was younger, and just two years ago bought a V1. It's now hard for me to imagine not having the directional arrows that are exclusive to the V1.

Seriously, in every legitimate test, V1 smokes the competition. You will pay more for it, though.

That's pretty zen.

Try maintaining that when you're eventually-because it will happen if you drive as you say you do-pulled over

Valentine One and it is not close.

NOTE: Valentine One will not pay for any tickets you receive while using the device, as hinted by another poster above.
