i put 40-60k miles a year on the road and have had a detector for 5 years. 1 ticket because i wasn't paying attention and had my unit on silent. i rarely drive the speed limit on highways and the interstate. no telling how much money in tickets it has saved me. yeah they only work when traffic in front of you is getting shot but whens the last time you were driving and didnt have someone in front of you? a good detector will pick up 8-10 miles ahead. escorts new redline claims 14. valentine will read 10 miles. if you are driving a lot its worth to have one. if you want one get a good one expect to spend 400-600 bucks.
