Do you have V1 performance anxiety with a passenger?

[CJR238]

I hate it when I have a passenger and my V1 goes off like crazy at door opener infested areas or it doesn't go off at all with a LEO visibly sitting in the median with I/O or just monitoring traffic.

I don’t seem to have this problem. :P

I think we should make queue cards for new RD passengers that has standard questions and answers on it.

Radar Detector passenger etiquette:

Don’t ask stupid questions like below, and when possible point out cops.
Q-Hey why didn't it go off? There’s a cop?
A-Its a Radar detector not a Cop detector.

Q-Why's it going off in this parking lot?
A-Automatic doors in shopping centers use radar to automatically open the doors.

Q-Do radar detectors really work?
A-Yes, most of the time if the cop leaves his radar on. Sometimes they will wait till they see you than turn it on and no RD will save you from that.

I'm copy/pasting this and printing one to keep in the glove box. You're brilliant!

What do you drive Sir Dong?

I drive a Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7L V8 with Quadra-Drive.... it's primarily our winter-mobile but I typically use it all year round for its consistent power and handling characteristics....

There's a new Chrysler 300C AWD sitting on my driveway for when I come home this weekend.... It replaces a '96 Honda Accord LX, so it's a huge step up. That'll be fun, but first we'll have to see how this athermic windshield and laser ACC will work out....

Have fun countermeasuring up the 300C!

LOL i hate explaining those radar drones on the freeways. all the passengers have asked about that, or started looking around

The worst is the passenger that you tell to alert you of cops so you can watch the road. At 5 missed leos :x i gave up

Yeah, this isn't a free ride where you can take a nap. You have work to do to.

Atleast none of you get the "Aren't those are illegal in Virginia?"

Ouch man, that totally blows. What do you say?

[Striker444]

Some other questions I get are:

1) Why is it beeping faster?
2) Why did the beep sound different this time?
3) Aren't RD's illegal here? (I live in NY)
4) You paid $450 for that?!!? A speeding ticket is cheaper!

Losing your driver's license due to speeding is even cheaper. You no longer have to buy expensive gas and you'll even get a good workout when you go out.
