radar detector
 
Is there any Radar Detectors on the market that can't be detected by police?

Yep there sure is and it works in every state. It is called a spedometer and every vehicle has one and if used in conjunction with the signs posted along the road you will never get pulled over for speeding.

AND police can't detect radar detectors, radar detectors detect radars which police use to detect speeds, LOL

Yes police can detect an operational radar detector. A radar detector is an active scanning device, not a passive one.

Here's how it works Police use Radar you use a Radar detector to find a police officer using a Radar gun or other device.Police use a Radar detector detector yes they have them.You then try to use a new detector that can not be seen by the radar detector detector.Just remember 1 thing the radar gun will hit you before you even see the cop or the radar going off most of the time.Oh and BY THE WAY IT'S AGAINEST THE LAW FOR A COMMERICAL TO HAVE A RADAR DETECTOR.So not only will you get a huge ticket possible jail time but you will have your CDL taken away.

The only radar detector on the market that is completely undetectable by both SPECTRE and VG-2 detection units is the BELtronics STI driver.

Yes they can. Radar detector detectors pick up on the RF leakage that radar detectors give out. BELtronics has managed to build sufficient shielding around their componentry to block that leakage, making it invisible to both the VG-2 and the formerly undefeatable SPECTRE.

The bottom line is CMV's cannot have them and most companies have strict policies against them. Another issue is most officers don't leave their radars or laser on continously. They are typically trigger activated and they trigger it as soon as they see you. By then your expensive detector is too late and you'll get the ticket anyways.

JUST DON'T SPEED. Think of the money you'll save if you don't have to buy detectors, pay ticket costs, pay lawyers, etc.

Greg has it, if they hit the Instant on button when they see you, your busted before your detector even beeps.

I saw one a few weeks ago in a pickup, the kid had it on and we went by a cruiser that was sitting parked while the cop was directing traffic. The detector was going nuts telling us we were right on top of the radar source yet his radar gun was not on, we looked in as we went by and nothing was flashing on the dash. For some reason it was up radar from a car that was turned off, only the light beacon on top was working. No other cruisers around the immediate area either.

What if the police are using aircraft?? You are not going to detect that with anything.
