GuysAnyone ever used the speed trap detector? I think our Malaysian Police use Laser to detect speed - any recommendations?
 
There are detectors and then there are scramblers... 1 is passive and just "detects", the other is active (and jams the waves). Detectors are almost always useless because by the time the light flashes on your detector, you wont have enough time to slow down fast enough b4 camera already takes an image of your car. If you are doing 101 at a 90, probably enough time la.. if you doing 120 at a 90... u aint going to escape by decelerating so fast la.

Scrambler... well, they are illegal, and if a police man is attached to the radar gun, he'll know and WILL radio it to the roadblock down the road if there is one. And trust me, they won't ask nicely when they speak to you about this. Aussie neighbour had this in his Merc, police didn't even bother with normal small talk when he wind down mirror. Just told him to pass it over OR they will "sita" the car due to suspicions of having illegal item in the car. :)

Recommendation - drive in the speed range or if you have to speed and get caught, just pay the fine. Not worth the investment in my opinion. Even the supercar club from our good neighbors down south don't bother with this anymore when they come to up to MY because you just get out of the pan and right into the fire.
 
I've used valentine one years ago but never detected any speed trap.

Nowadays, don't bother with it anymore. Just pay... Otherwise how to enjoy the power of 'M', but I'll speed only at appropriate time.

A friend of mine with 335i last year paid about RM 5k for his summons after discount.
 
i think the cop will surely marked cars that jammed their radar reading. is there any product that dont jam the radar and only giving signals that the radar is pointing at us?

Got but like shared above, pretty pointless. It's like having rain sensors but no wipers. Can detect but u can.t avoid it.

Cheaper just apply for my-eg SMS update. :)
