I still have one of the bear trackers although I haven't used it in years. I imagine all the frequencies are different now which would render it useless.

I drove through Houston yesterday with my Valentine 1, ended up turning it off, the new full size GM SUVS with their anti collision radars made it useless, can not believe a bunch of car guys would pick a frequency that has for years worked in favor of car guys.

The Waze app rocks, very accurate...a real keeper. Just read that the cops want to shut it down because claiming that it endangers them since people know where they are and will be subject to ill intent. Bu!!FrigginSh!t, they're losing ticket money and their precious little interdiction opportunities since we got the upper hand for now. Best app ever.

It doesn't work with cops who are driving around, only stationary...their point is weak but will strike a note with some politicians. I'm sure at some point they'll figure out a way around Waze like they always do, but for now I'll enjoy the information as I'm driving the highways.

hated Phuchkin Ohio when I used to drive back and forth to Michigan back in the days,
I would leave Fl at 6pm and run straight thru. Georgia .Tennesee and Kentucky 90 to 110 the whole way in the middle of the night traveling in packs.. Hit Ohio mid afternoon the next day and the speed limit was 55 and a state boy every mile.
Phuckin painful when all you wanted to do was get in a bar with your buds and kill a few and hit the sack for 12 hours,
Felt like you were going backwards at 55 after running that hard for 6 hours.
Never got a ticket in 4 years running until I bought a Escort detector and than almost lost my license within 1 year relying on it.

That sucks. Got caught doing 105 on a backwoods highway in Maine. My state never found out about it.
