Pulled over 4 times for speeding in 20 years.
83 in a 55 in Salt Lake City. Got a ticket for $100 (yeah, a long time ago). Went to court. Got it reduced to $80 and to 14 mph over.

As you read the article, try to pick out how many errors this guy is making.
Northern Territory News
I'm not even going to attempt to summarize the article. It's worth the read.
Okay, the title says it all. It's still worth the read. Especially the completely unrelated, but still hilarious last line of the article.
Australian Axman Attacks Automated Ticketing Machine
What kind of BMW was it? Mine is a 2003 540i (last year of the E39 series), and it only has regular cruise control. I don't think laser cruise was available yet. My V1 is hardwired, and the only time...
Perhaps you're referring to this news story:

My favorite line from the article:

WOW!! The words fail me. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Wait, I'm confused. Obsidian, are you talking about a baby or a car? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'm not sure. The website lists the E38, E39, E46, E53, E83, and E84. Trying sending the guy an email.
It doesn't have anything to do with navigation. If your BMW has the navigation package, the V1 alerts will be displayed on your nav screen. However, you can still use the StealthOne without the...
If you're really motivated, there are plenty of guides for upgrading the stereo with navigation. I'm not quite sure about a 97 7 series, but it's been done quite a bit on the 97 528/540's.
By the...
Another vote for an E36 or E46 BMW 3 series. If the repair bills on the M3s worry you, look at an E46 330i (or 330xi for Chicago winters). There are plenty available in the $15-20K range. Pretty good...
For the BMW and V1 owners, the StealthOne adapter is going to have another production run. This is supposed to integrate the V1 alerts and signals into the BMW On-Board Computer or Navigation...

The pictures in this story pretty much sum it up. Remember, these are trained professionals.

I've found that the best response to, "Do you know how fast you were going?" is something like:
I'm sure I was driving a safe and reasonable speed, officer.
If asked, "Yeah, but how fast were...
What do ya mean, "I guess"? That M62 or S62 engine in the E39s is a blast to drive. :D My E39 only makes 290hp and 324 ft/lbs, but it's sure fun. 8) 8)
achtzylinder oder nichts!! :P
Some cheap phone cords only have one pair of wires. The V1 needs a phone cord with two pairs of wires. Look at the RJ-11 jack. You should be able to see a total of four wires inside.
Is your 650 a...
You can buy a Direct Wire Power Adapter from Valentine's website. It's about $15. It has a positive and ground wire, and comes with a connector to tap into a hot or switched wire. The adaptor has two...
I took my first drivers license test in the same metallic blue Celebrity. It had a 2.8L V6, and was actually a fun car. Good mileage, and the 2.8 kills the 2.5 4-banger. I drove that car through the...
This is a simplistic answer, but why not mount it just above and to the right of the RVM instead? Most of the time, I go by the tones of the V1, not the visual indicators?
(Cheers from a fellow...
It's hardly fair for them to blame the V1 for their tickets. The V1 is has tremendous laser detection. However, without a jammer (or Veil and a plate cover), the V1 is an extremely sensitive ticket...
Forum rules prohibit posting links to products that compete with Roy's offerings. However, I'm sure you could find it with very little effort on Google.
Basically, it's a short cord with two...
