One night I just decided to up it to 80 on cruise & suddenly I got a "bogie" hit on Ka band. Immediately I dropped to 55 & 3.1 miles later I found him sitting along side the road...the Escort paid for itself right there. Escorts get very few false alarms it is silent 90% or more unless it is real...my old Cobra was useless & extremely annoying. Now I drive slower mostly but use the Escort to keep me alert & aware of my surroundings & I play mental games on long trips to locate the cops before I could be in harms way even though I am usually no more than 5 over. Whatever, get a quality one or drive the speed limit...won't prevent all tickets but even one is worth it. Laser is too fast your only hope is to get a bit of scatter from someone around you...no protection from instant on guns just be smart & be safe.</blockquote>
