Had the Z for 14 months now and 10k miles, no pull overs or tickets. I also have a little friend though.

Ya know, I bought the 8500. Had it for a couple days, was kind of lamenting how much I had paid for it. Then, I was supposed to pick up my girl from work, but I was early, so I was just driving around. Got to a spot where the road was as open as far as I could see, and no one in site. Whaled on it, very quickly the detector started going off. I didn't anything anywhere, but slowed nonetheless. A ways up, there was a bike cop wedged between two buildings. I mean, must have had about 6 feet. Paid for itself right there.

I bought this same detector just before I embarked on my trip to MO and back from CA. Saved me several times. Almost no false alarms.

Last Monday I got pulled over by a cop driving the opposite direction on a highway.

I noticed him as I was passing by and I kept going, he didn't turn his flashers on right away but kept going for a little before he was able to do a U-Turn.

By this time I was pretty far ahead and thought I might be out of sight so I pulled over and hit a gas station and began to fill up.

He pulled up next to me as I was filling up and told me I was going 35KM over the limit which is 4 points and a 350$ fine. He asked me for my DL and registration/insurance and took it to his car.

I saw him on the radio for 3 mins, then he came back to me and said "Everyone needs a break from time to time, so today I'm giving you a break" handed me my papers back and walked away.

I can't recall the last time something so unexpectedly awesome has happened to me.

perhaps he let you go because he didnt manage to get a reading on his radar, or maybe the radar was off. if either of that happened, he technically cannot write a ticket

or because he lost site of him. The odds may be low, but it could be argued that there was another car of the same color that he really saw speeding.

I guess that must of been it.

I mean how can they fine you if they cant measure your speed

frost

Is that a Canada thing? I know cops can do visual estimations here. Maybe that's a state thing though.

A lot of cops now are qualified to judge how fast a car is going so they could still give you a ticket if they want.

It just has to be a good one. You get what you pay for, and if you have something that cost you $50 ...

I paid $450 for mine, steep yes but if it saves two tickets a year with the resulting insurance increases it more than pays for itself. The GPS kicks azz since I no longer have to listen to false alerts.

frost

I got the 9500, but I pass so many cameras on the way to work it was too distracting. Ended up downgrading back to the 8500.

frost

lol, gotcha. we can get them for a few bucks online. but free is better!
