According to a few online sources, apparently radar detectors are only illegal in Virgina and Washington D.C.
They ARE however illegal on ALL commercial trucks anywhere in the US.
I can only assume that since they are illegal on trucks there may be police all over the country that are using these Radar-detector-detectors. The can't pull you over for having a radar detector unless you are in Virginia or DC, but that doesn't mean that they can't try to pull you over for something else....
Oh, and thanks for the sentiments Powerclown....It IS a big loss and I would tell you to be EXTREMELY careful in Canada with you Valentine, or better yet just leave it at home...don't let what happened to me, happen to you...
I DID buy another one today, though...I should have it in a few days...I feel SOO naked without it...:-)
oh, my buddy had a good suggestion...kinda funny actually...
He suggested that I carry an extra radar detector, a REALLY cheap one...maybe one off of Ebay or something, and if I get pulled over again in Canada, hand them that one instead....:-)
*Grin* but the ticket still sux...
