[ST] Valentine One

["Randy S" <regreps@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've thought about getting a detector for years but a friend of mine in 
college (the 80's !) had one and on a road trip we were speeding merrily 
along a stretch of I-66 at night and his detector kept going off.  
Naturally, each time he tapped the brakes only to find it was "false".  
After about three times, the State Trooper intercepted and informed he just 
flips on the radar about a mile behind and watches for brake lights.  Oh, I 
should mention detectors are illegal in Virginia.

Still, I'd like to have one.  But, I've heard the troopers here have radar 
detector detectors and since they're illegal you get a fine if they nab you 
with one.  Are these Valentine/Passport things vulnerable to the detector 
detectors?  And actually, I do most of my riding on rural roads with the 
local cops who, I suspect, don't have the state budget to pay for the 
detector gizmos.
