DJ....I will keep it short...if you ever think your radar detector saved you, the real truth is, he wasn't interested...we aren't always working, or might be on a call for service...most sheriff's dept's throughout the country take more calls for service than running radar. Highway patrols, state police, run a lot of traffic and not much else...City officers do both...so, watch out for the locals, and state officers, they love traffic...I was lucky enough to have a Camaro, and do traffic only in my later years...it was fun at first, then, they expected those citations week in, week out...lol
