Mass + Radar Detectors = ticket?

[Bu11dogg2]

My Brother lives south of Boston and he SWEARS they are now illegal in Mass.

Can anyone confirm?

[RCKSTR]

this would be good to know since I drive to work in mass everyday with my radar detector on :lol:

[Bu11dogg2]

I don't leave the tax free state of NH unless I REALLY have to :lol:

[Pulski]

They're perfectly legal.

You're less likely to get a warning though.

[TurboRush]

They are only illegal in VA and DC. However, Jammers are another story.

[Bu11dogg2]

:snoop:

[Spilner]

Detectors are perfectly legal in Mass still, trust me if the law changes I'd be the first to know.

[Bu11dogg2]

Nice!

I'll tell my brother he's an idiot

^^ That was the second time just yesterday that I got in a discussion about radar... people are just very poorly informed.

he stated that he was in a car that was pulled over and the cop asked if hea had one and then told him they we're illegal

[FREAK]

:lol:

I've actually been thinking of selling my V1

It spends 99% of my drive time in the glove box.

[HipsterDoofus]

Dont need one, wouldnt know


cops cant catch me in my sooperautomobile!

I wish I could put a cape on it

[Bu11dogg2]

Cops may give you crap about the location of the radar detector is on the windshield and say it is blocking your view as well.

[Pulski]

That's why I kept mine low. The only thing it obstructs my view of is the hood scoop. :lol:

Detectors are not illegal, however, if you're pulled over for speeding and the cop sees it... almost 100% chance you're getting a ticket.

that is what i was going to mention.. i had a buddy get a ticket for it obstructing his view, even though it was mounted real low like pulski said...

cops obviously hate them.. even tho they aren't illegal, when i would get pulled over, i would always pull down my passport 8500 quickly if the cop wasnt close enough to see me do it.. just so they wouldn't be more dickish to me..

I've managed a verbal warning before, but you're right. It's very unlikely.

Nah.... I never bother taking mine out of the window and I cant remember the last time I got a ticket... knock on wood. Its really how you look and behave after your pulled over. If your an idiot with earrings a stupid flat brimmed hat and talk like an uneducated ****, you get a ticket. You are respectful, speak like an intelligent human being and are honest = no ticket.

:snoop:


I was thinking $400 with the remote display and hardwire kit

Unit is $400 new with hardware, remote display is $39 more. If I were going to spend that, I'd spend $40 more for brand new.

Let me know when you want my $200... :spin:

[TurboRush]

at that price, get a Escort 9500 ix

v1 > 9500ix
