They still check speed because most radar detectors only really warn you that you are about to get a ticket (meaning, if it goes off full strength and you are doing 100 mph, you are screwed). You must know the proper warning signs of an upcoming radar gun to really get use out of it (like it will beep with a very low signal, disappear, beep again a little stronger, disappear, them BAM, there's the cop) So when you saw the little beeps you want to slow down. The amount of "false" detections we get here off of many other technologies (garage door openers, proximity detectors, etc.) many times makes people miss real warnings. Basically it wont save you (especially if the police have laser). But it is a reminded to drive slower. I could keep writing for the next 2 hours about this, but I'll stop now to save everyone from boredom. :wink:
