Thread: One Beep

  1. #1

    Default One Beep

    moving along I10 west bound in very sparse traffic...... one beep..... KA.... I break from 89 down to 75 mph.......about 1/2 mile later I crest a hill.... nothing....about 30 seconds later..... one beep - KA again.....still 75 mph......watched a few less prepared vehicles zoom pass me... about 2 miles later ..... beeeeeeeeeeepppppppp.....full KA..... another mile later, as I round a curve, there they both are....... two troopers..... and two of the cars that passed me...... they were actually in the procees of being pulled over...... V1 and about 4 -5 mile warning as a single KA beep. These cops were firing their radar intermitently, ambush style..(very rare to see two working ambush style. almost always constant on when two or more are working together)

    not all detectors are equal.. sensitivity is king for these types of ambushes....

    It was like being in a short movie, I knew what was happening.....Situational Awareness

    It's an awesome feeling seeing other cars blow by you straight into Ka territory. I had some a**hole tailgating me once when the detector went off. He eventually got bored with my slow speed so he went on ahead at mach 12. Got bagged by the sheriff's department running CO Ka. Idiot.

    Haha yes its always good to hear your V1 screaming at you while some jerk passes you thinking he is a bad unit until he gets the berries and cherries. Can't beat the V1
