My experience is that in a great percentage of the time the radar will pick up the instant on checking the cars ahead and give you warning or pick up the moving radar doing the same thing and in some cases pick up the laser. Personally I have avoided a ticket many times by carefully watching and listening for the signal that told me police type radar was around and adjusted my speed accordingly. It is not 100% foolproof and nobody should depend to heavily on a detector. It is tool to help warn you of the radar but you have to interpret the signal and be prepared to react quickly. If your hit with instant on and your on top of the radar your had !! Bob J.
