Google maps has a function where radar traps are reported. first time I heard it, it confused the hell out of me. glanced at my phone and saw the warning, 20 seconds later i saw the police.

That's why I bought it. I'm not much of a speeder but I do consider speeding tickets to be a form of unjust taxation and mild tyranny. Our speed limits were set based on average stopping distances for cars that were built many decades ago with drum brakes and bias ply tubed tires etc...
I firmly believe that speed enforcement is about revenue for the state and not about highway safety because it's about the only rule of the road that is regularly enforced and almost always requires the offender to pay a fee. I didn't want stimulus checks because they'll end up costing us much more in the long run than we'll actually receive now so I figure this way I'm doing my civic duty by helping other motorists drive with caution and avoid fines that I consider mostly unjust.
My brother in law does rallies like Gumball and swears by the Valentine One detector.
I did some research before my purchase and found out something interesting about jammers.
Radar jammers are illegal in all states because devices that transmit RF are regulated by the FCC.
Lasers are regulated by the FDA and there are no federal regulations that prohibit jamming lasers but a handful of states have banned laser jamming devices.
