    Default Just when you thought......

    Just when you thought Audi's caused K band falses, look out for Mercedes too. I was driving normal route home, got a legit K band with some nice range, sure enough cop in the middle of the road.

    Ok, so I am driving along and another K band hit where typically most cops use Ka on that road except that one cop I passed uses K band. I soon pass a S class Mercedes and sure enough the arrows shift to the rear and now I have 2 bogeys, at least the arrows pointed me to the light lol.

    Yes, some high-end Mercedes have K-band cruise controls.

    It's like carmakers hate RDs or something.

    If speed kills, how come I'm still alive?
