Well my parents were pulled over yesterday by the CHP. The Officer told them that they have a new type of radar. It's not a gun, its a new system that automatically pin point anybody who is speeding.

Does anyone know what this is called?

 

Escort Announces a New Radar Detector with GPS Intelligence and Safety Camera Database - Further expanding its technological leadership in the radar and laser detector industry, Escort Inc. announced today the next generation of its GPS-powered speed and location intelligent radar and laser detectors, the all-new PASSPORT 9500ix.

 

**** that sucks for you guys
i'm sure in my small town we won't have to worry about it.
i hope austin doesn't get those

 

i actually already got pulled over by one of those, too. the cop didn't give me a ticket tho, i think he was just playing with the gun, because he seemed so proud of himself.

also, beware, my friend got pulled over in his acura tl for his front window tint. the cops said they're cracking down on that now because of the new cell phone law... they want to see if you're using it.

 

Ahhh great.
Gosh darn Cali and there crazy laws!

 

what's the law against ultra-dark sunglass lenses?

seriously, some california laws are just

 

This is good news in my opinion... so sick of street racers flying by on the freeway... I rarely drive over 75/80, and that's just to keep up with the flow of traffic. if someone on the road is going much faster than the flow of traffic, then I can see where this would be useful.

 

Thanks for the good news, im be checking these out, i STILL have ZERO moving violations on my record, i intend on keeping that way.

 

knock on wood lol

Yeah they are. I heard somebody mention that suction cups are illegal too. lol

 

hahaha x2. Jason... you better knock on wood

 

i knocked even though im not superstitious. I checked out that passport, freaken thing looks bad ass... you can get the red faced one for 415 online.

 

damn it... this sucks! Where are all teh smart thugs? Go invent machines that jam those stuupid things!

ooh and also like... electric-shading tint so you can set it dark when you want and OFF when you're near cops... hahaha

 

damn that tint idea would be THE SHIT!
or have different levels of tint!
photoshoot = 5%
daily = 35%

that'd be awesome

 

They have both of those inventions BTW, Radar jammers have been around for years and are illegal in CA, and Electrochromatic window shading technology has also been around for a few years. Check those out homies.

 

omggg really? Well i knew jammers existed but would it work in this application?? omggg electro-tint FTMFW!!! imma check that $hit out right now

 

im going to research about those tints as well. it seems like a really good idea to have

 

you could also just roll down the windows when you're near cops if you're afraid of getting ticketed. i don't think i've ever heard of that electrochromatic tint, but it sounds pretty cool.

 

Tint laws aren't just in CA, they're around the country. It's for officer safety that your tint isn't too dark. Easy to shoot an officer with your limo tinted windows rolled all the way up and he'd never know.

 

That's why you speed when everyone else is also. Cop can't pull everyone over at once. You're a sitting duck if you speed alone, but if you speed near other people, you just reduce your chances of getting ticketed.
