Radar Detectors - Your Honest Opinion Please

[superpursuit83]

Hey Zigga, I know where you are coming from (I mean we have only just got rid of the traffic lights on our Freeways !!) Some of the road works have had 2 different speed limits posted for the same bit of road. All the "don't speed" comments where not asked for! People should chill a bit. Dare any one of you here to swear on the bible that you never speed, even accidently.
Even KeepLeft had a decent reply and no triangles.

Mate, radar detectors do work, but they have a lot of variables, all depending on the surroundings and camera angles etc. KA detection is normally good... But sometimes other things are in the way of you picking up there signal. And the boys have a habit of putting them around a bend etc, that will reduce your detectors range.
With Laser alert! You have to be very lucky to slow down in time once you hear the crazy beeps and "LASER!" alert.
As mentioned, you do have to learn your detectors noises etc. before you get the most out of them.
