Ooh, what fun I missed over the Holidays.
I've got some stories to tell (all from today)
Morning rush hour:
34.9xx 9500ci alerted first, Naperville PD moving squad car on the opposite side of the road
Going to Lunch:
Ka 35.495: 9500ci alerts first, goes to show me my speed, then instantly switches to laser. An unmarked dark blue Naperville PD Dodge Magnum is on the side street (12th) with his drivers window down. This is a 5 lane section one road where the speed limit is 30mph (Washington), and the cops love to sit. I'm not sure if he had dash mounted Ka pointed straight and then hit me with laser, or what was happening, but it was odd. Down at the light, the V1 continued on Ka rear, and when I turned the 9500ci back on it was alerting to 35.495, and I was about 5 ft from the car in front of me. When the light turned green and the car in front pulled away, the 9500ci stopped alerting, and the V1 continued Ka rear for another 10 sec or so.
Red is when the V1 alerted to 35.5, Blue is when the 9500ci alerted to 35.5. The big gap is becuase I killed it due to it starting to jam.
Back from Lunch:
Sitting at a light, the right lane is ending up ahead in about 100ft, I'm in the left lane. Little blue prius is back in the right lane hanging back. He tries to time the light to get a roll on me while I'm stopped. I gun it first and make him slam on his brakes to get behind me. I should have thrown my hazards on
.
Evening rush hour
K 24.178. I was at a light perpendicular to a major road, there is a shopping plaza across the street, so depending on traffic I occasionally pick up K. Well I notice that the frequency seems kind of high, I remember it being 24.122 or something, so I'm suspicous. The 9500ci isn't ramping up, just a steady beep, so I mute it. The V1 then starts beeping K, and ramps up to full strength. Arrows switch and do all the fancy stuff the V1 is great for as the LEO rolls by.
By far, the most exciting was killing that prius.
