I have owned a high end radar detector ($350 or so) for a couple years and it has saved me a few times but the only reason I keep it so religiously is because I like to be AWARE when a cop is around. If I am driving through town at 3 am I want to know if there is a cop watching me even if I am not speeding. I rarely go much more than 10 over without someone in front of me doing the same because in my area it is all hills and if you fly over the hill at 70 instead of 55 you are fucked if a cop is down in the valley below. It has happened to me although thank god I got a warning. On the other hand, I love having it for LONG interstate trips because on those you can truly save hours if you are doing 85 instead of 65. It just sucks that most cops are using laser on the I's now.
