Uniden maintains a database that is uploaded to the RD and provides you with an alert as you approach the location of one. Same thing with red light cameras. Uniden periodically updates the database as cameras are added or retired.

I use an R3 and have been extremely satisfied with its performance. Alerts many miles before encountering the LEO are common place. The prior comments here about laser and instant on radar are well taken. Short of installing a laser jammer (illegal in many states), running Waze along with a RD are pretty effective countermeasures.
Whenever I went to GA, there were these cameras on the highway pointing your way and against traffic, and seemed to be present every other mile marker. Not sure what they were, but I'm guessing they were speed cameras Luckily in FL, we don't require front bumper license plates.

Thank you for all the responses. If you are driving in GA watch out.After research I ended up going with Valentine V1 Gen 2. I had great luck with the Valentine V1 Gen 1 in the past.
