<VV> Radar & Front Plates i.e. : "vertical reflecting surfaces"

[Tom Berg]

Ha! Those younger people should've been around in the Double Nickel days. In '74 I bought a CB radio to try to beat the cops, but gave up when state patrolmen using vascar got me doing 65 mph on a wide, four-lane freeway stretch of U.S. 41 in Wisconsin. 
 
I began cruising 4 to 7 mph over the limit and still do. No more worries and no time wasted debating beam refraction, lidar and all that other nonsense, and no money spent on detectors that MIGHT save me from a ticket. Slow down and enjoy the ride, young whippersnappers!

Just don't display it here in Virginia. Oh, and make sure it doesn't get 
detected by the State Police radar detector detectors...

I work with younger people who moved here from other states who own 
radar detectors, but they mostly leave them OFF while here. Just use 
them when traveling home.

Oh and get this. Virginia had a law where speeding over 20 mph above the 
speed limit or above 80 mph was a careless and reckless charge. When 
some Interstate speeds were raised to 70 mph (yea!) the law did not 
change. Imagine all those out of state travelers who get a ticket doing 
between 80 and 90 mph, get charged with C &R and then their home state 
suspends their license, where as they would not have a C & R charge in 
their home state speeding the same amount.
