I've lived in Texas, Florida, California, North Carolina, and Virginia, where I was born. Never owned a radar detector or had the desire to own one. Plenty of bird dogs to collect the tickets around here if you want to drive that fast, just let one driver go a couple MPH faster. Had a cop with lights on pass me when I was going 15+ over the limit and pull over the car in front of me that was doing 20, many times in my more speedy past. Maybe one ticket a decade or 4 in 40 years.
Kind of funny to see so much about radar detectors on a fuel efficiency forum. Instant on radar pretty much defeats detectors anyway.
These days, if the roads were deserted and there was no penalty for excess speed, I would still drive below the poasted limit.
