I run a radar for california and oregon. I don't want to be going 55 on a dead straight section of I-5. I'd like to go 60 and when that thing starts beeping, I slow down. All you guys say how bad they are and you can get caught... It's the chance you take I guess. I'm willing to risk it.

The best fuzz buster out there is the Cobra29. Best one I've ever had. You buy one, and put it on channel 19, you will know where all the black n whites are. :P :lol:

K-11...I have a lot of time cruising the 5. Except for spots like Redding, Sac, and south of Wheeler Ridge, I could set the cruise at 60 and motor right along. Not once did I ever get yarded over for speeding. Didn't even get a lightbar flash to advise me to slow down..and I've never had a "detector" other than a cb and my eyesight.

Don't bother with radar...they can jam the signal.

If you wanna hammer down, the best time is between 7am to 7:30am. Git'R Done Son!

Well you were lucky, I got pulled over and was given a warning for 60. It wasn't even in one of the "hotspots" like redding, corning, medford, etc

i've got an old high school buddy who works for the california highway patrol. according to him, most of his fellow officers won't pull a truck driver over for going 60mph. i always go 60 through california and have never been lit up, or spoken to on the cb from the officer behind me. however, if the cop is a rookie, chances are 50/50 that he'll pull you over. depends on how bored he or she is. the only times i'm going 55 or below is when there's fog, strong wind, rain, quite a bit of traffic, construction zones, or a mix of any o' that.
