A big part of speeding is also knowing the town your driving in. I've lived in Salem, Ore. all 18 years of my existance, and I know hot spots where the pigs like to hide out. But nonetheless, the 60 dollar Cobra detector I bought has been very effective in alerting me of cops with radar in use. On the way home from work tonight I passed a cop going 55 in a 30, and my Cobra DIDNT do anything, which tells me his radar was off, because I think any cop looking for speeders wouldn't have hesitated to pull me over. Most detectors will go off by grocery stores, but the beep is different and a different symbol flashes up on the LED display pannel then that of a radar gun. So if you willing to pay $300 for custom floor mats (which I'm sure some of you have

), then I think you should cough up 60-100 for a radar detector. Remember boys and girls, if we weren't supposed to speed, they would do a better job at preventing it
That's my 2 cents.
