Im a Class A driver in CA ... tickets suck x10 for me!!

[Lucky225]

Is cheetah C50 a laser jammed ?

I tried fighting first one by mail, got denied, then tried to reschedule and messed that part up and missed court.

Current ticket I thought I'd give it in person a shot, reschedule court even, copstill showed up, he had 3 cases on same light camera, 2 defendents didn't show lol, appeal won't do much probably, but there is still a slight chance maybe.

Would it beworth it to buy 2 IX models and set up one forward and one facing to the rear, to catch cops if they are coming up from the rear?

What about those cops hiding behind overpasses, I don't see radars saving you on those?

sux, there's a ton of defenses you would have had available besides hoping he doesn't show up that you could have employed

Man that really sucks.
I use the 9500ix for in town and it has the RLC (Red Light Camera) alerts. It has online weekly updates for the database and they send an email for which states the updates are for. The updates are a given for the first 90 days, then a subscription applies for extended updates. I think there is a 1 year, 3 year and lifetime. I opted for the 3 year which was something like 30 bucks. Didn't go for any longer because I don't know how long I'll have it, and beside, what may be new introduced on the market, I may or may not upgrade by then.

I use the V1 for out on the open roads (freeways, Interstate, Highway etc.) and like the rear detection sensitivity. The arrows and bogey counter is kind of addictive. Not much else to say but the V1 is popular so I decided to get one.

No regrets on either for my driving.

(added) you may or may not have heard that they want to add speed cams to many existing RLCs - And John McGuiness (maybe spelled right/wrong) the Sac county sheriff does not like the idea as they are looking at it for revenue and not for safety reasons.

For one, Trial by declaration first, if you LOOSE that THEN de novo. For 2 if the officer who witnessed wasn't there to testify against you the other officer is hearsay so you should have used proper OBJECTION, not TESTIMONY to object to his testimony as hearsay and motion for a directed verdict. If you did do this and the judge wasn't hearing it you have grounds for an appeal.

Welcome to the forum, hand Best of luck with your tickets.Sounds like Ca.sucks if you get tickets when you have CDL. I would agree get a lawyer.It would be worth the money,and I think they can keep it off your record,at least here in Texas that's the way it works.

does the 9500IX protect 360 degrees?
so it wont do that good on the freeways?
V1 is better for freeways, why is this?

should i get one for freeway and one for city, ill do anything i need to to protect my butt lol i think i got 3 years to drive like a gramma before the points fall off

Welcome Nick. I have a CDL too and the Bel STi in the big rig has saved me countless times as you may want to think about it. As long as it's pulled down if the weigh station is open, you are good to go.

Any decent RD will give plenty of detection distance to threats from behind, including the 9500ix.

V1 is better for freeways, why is this?

The V1 is the only windshield mounted RD that has both a forward racing and rear facing antenna, which gives the V1 two advantages over the competition. The first one is the arrows, which lets the user know if the radar contact is ahead or behind the car. The second one is superior detection range on contacts that approach the rear of the vehicle. The V1's rear range is roughly double that of the 9500ix. Combine those features with excellent sensitivity and top-notch reactivity that no other RD can match and you have a RD that is a beast on the highway. The other reason that the V1 gets the "highway" tag is due to the it's excessive false alerts in the city, which is too much for most normal humans to deal with(V1 Zombies not included in the group labeled "normal humans").

No. Only a total loser would need two RDs for one car! Oh wait.

Here's what you need to avoid 99.9% of speeding tickets:

1. A good RD
2. A good laser jammer
3. A good understanding of the tactics used by the LEOs you encounter and an understanding of how to best defend against those tactics.
