From Quebec, Hi!

Hi All,

i've been reading couple of posts in the last hour, well pretty much since I got back from 2 hours of road travel, and 1 speed ticket. It's my 2nd ticket in february, and the last one was in october. 3 points each, add three 1year and 6 months ago, im at 12 (15 = no more permit). In july I will be back with 9 points.

Well I know, I should reduce my speed, but I'm far more ''dangerous'' driving at 120kmh, cause I have a tendency to sleep heh... and with my car, the sensation of speed is noticeable only around 180 or so.

I have a radar detector that works good for KA band, but useless for laser (been caught 3 times!!!!). Now I'm gonna post in your ''advise'' section where should I put the LI I just bought.

I'm very happy I found a community like that, keep on!!!

stay safe,
Pete.

Wow that's rough. I'm in Ontario, I know how bad the cops up here are. Could you post some pics of your vehicle. Just edit out the plate number. The members here are very knowledgeable about Laser Jammer placement.

hey guys! thanks for the reply

I have a passport 8500 (blue). I know, not the best, but saved my a** couple of times

And wolf, I just posted some pics in the advise section. Thanks!

Welcome!!

You should ditch that 8500 bro ASAP!!! Radar detectors are highly illegal in Quebec. It can be picked up by the Spectre RDD and you will lose it along with a ton of money and maybe your license. Look into a Bel Sti, Sti-R, Escort 9500ci, Redline just stop using that 8500 now.

hey dude! thanks for the advise... Thing is I bought 2 at the same time some time ago, and I gave one to my father. He got caugth, policeman told him he knew he had one, and he had to give it away (after ALOF of bluffing and just before his car was going to be towed heh). You don't lose your license, ''only'' a 600$ fine (no points) and removal of the device. I've got it setup pretty well tho, and I deactivate it as soon as I see a cop or hear a tone.

Now my father is back from florida, and he bought one that cannot be picked up (magnesium cover??). I will do the same in a near future but for now, It's the laser I must protect myself from.
