[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4264713, member: 5412"] We run three Bell detectors. They are getting pretty old, but have saved my bacon from a ticket hundreds of times. One has to know tactics and when to speed and not to speed. Instant on and Lidar are impossible to beat if you're the target, but make sure someone else is the target and you're the tail to catch the scatter. Never be the only one on the road and speed over the top of a hill. Be the second or third one over the hill because someone is always speeding to catch scatter. I liked what I called the bait and catch technique the OHP uses. One cruiser keeps the radar on so when you pass them in the opposite direction, some think it's time to hammer down as the threat is behind you, but the catcher is about 1/4 mile behind the bait, running behind another vehicle or truck to use the instant on you. I had to go to work 18 miles down Hwy 177 every day. There was an OHP troop in Pawnee that took that same road to and from shift change at the same time. Learned a lot from watching them. Yeah, earned a couple tickets over the years, but that's how I learned. [/QUOTE]
