    Default What percentage of cars on the road have radar detectors?

    What percentage of vehicles on the road have radar detectors? Are there any statistics on this? My friends and I have discussed this a lot, but we can't come up with a good number.

    Sorry if this has been brought up before. I'm new here, but did search.

    I guess I should have specified a country. I was referring to the USA, but if anyone has stats on other areas, I'd love to see them.

    The US detector market is something around a million units every year. Maybe each driver gets 4 years out of one let's say. A lot of those units get exported though.

    The USA average is 7 to 10%

    There have been studies on this.
