I am seriously annoyed by the silly 100 kph speed limit on the 401.  I
have considered using a radar detector, but from what I've heard so
far (if you get caught):

	- the radar detector gets confiscated
	- you get nailed with a fine for using one
	- you get nailed for speeding
	- you get demerit points 
	- your insurance rates go up

What have your experiences been with radar detectors?  Can police stop
you (if you're not speeding) if they see a radar detector sitting on
your dash?  What are the relevant laws?
