Having a radar detector can sometimes GIVE you a ticket. I was driving along
I-80 in Pennsylvania when a cop pulled me over. I was doing 70 at the time in
a 55 mph zone. Apparently, he had timed me visually, so my radar detector did
not pick him up. He was all ready to give me a warning, when he bent over and
saw my radar detector. Poof!! I called me a speeder, and I my bank account
decreased by $122.50. The sad thing was, I really was not intentionally
speeding.

The moral of the story is: unless you are willing to accept the consequences
of owning a radar detector, don't get one!
