   Yes they do. Take this from someone who travels the highways frequently. The radar detector can save you from getting a ticket, but if the local or state police use the turn radar gun on/off method, there is no fail-proof way of avoiding a costly ticket no matter how good the radar detector may be. The best measure is to know your area in which you travel.

   To me the best bang for your bunch radar detector is the BEL 955, for $179 at RadarBusters.com. The BEL 955 is not the best but it is certainly up there with the top 3 radar detectors [Escort 8500 X50($300), BEL RX65 ($329.99), and Valentine 1($400)] I personally have a BEL Vector 995($270) and Valentine 1($400) and their is only a slight difference in detection range. I like both detectors equally due to their unique features.

   The BEST radar detector is relative to the features you like/need…..There are 5 radar detectors with equal performance in most respects and will save you tickets contrary to what some will tell you. The Top 5 radar detectors are (in no specific order) the:
   BEL RX65
   BEL STi
   Escort 8500 X50
   Escort 9500i
   Valentine 1

   I personally use the Valentine 1 as well as the BEL vector 995 both have saved me huge fines when dealing with police radar. But for dealing with Laser you really needs a laser jammer (illegal in some states) I use a Blinder M20 and Anti-Laser laser jammers on my Volvo along with VEIL stealth coating and LaserShield plate cover.

   For those that say a radar detector is just a ticket notifier obviously don’t have experience with a top level detector. Ask any of my friends that ride in my car. My detectors both sniff out cops easily and give me plenty of time to slow down when usually going 10-15mph over the limit.

   For test results of pretty much all laser jammers and radar detectors….Check out these links:

   Radar detectors are only illegal in Virginia and Washington DC.
