| 1231112 | 2011-09-14 23:01:00 | Grow up and dont speed. That is about as clever as telling General Motors to make all their cars go no faster than 100km per hour. :illogical |

| 1231115 | 2011-09-15 00:25:00 | Have a BEL STI XR (3 years) and a progression of other BEL's over the years The STI along with the Valentine one and Escort are good but still only give you about 100 metres average against the low powered Mobile van camera's on "K" Band Learnt over the years to stick close to the speed limit as they target people they think are speeding with "instant on" ,detector or no detector they will have you Most think they drive around all the time with the Radar on ,they don't A GPS is very good for speed camera locations if kept updated and the ability of warning you that you are speeding or entering a lower speed zone which I find invaluable for travelling in different areas So all in all ,I find a detector of real advantage when you arrive at passing lanes,you will get a indication of a Police car patrolling up a head and think twice about passing and let the ones behind get nicked which have been a few over the years |
