The plan facts about these detectors is that the companies that make the speed enforcement equipment, drop in tons of money into developing these units supplied to goverment agencies and if you think some tinny little $400 dash mounted unit will protect you, then your truly dreaming.

Most ppl should remember that the Myth Busters covered this a couple years ago and they proved that all the detectors, jammers were simply didn't prvide enough warning to avoid getting nailed.
