First Look: Escort Max 360 Laser & Radar Detector
While you are on the road, there are many ways police can catch you for speeding violations. Some of them include radar and laser guns, red light cameras, air patrol, and photo radars, commonly known as speed cameras. According to the National Motorist Association, an estimated 1/3 of all speed enforcement citations are erroneous. Erroneous traffic tickets can be a financial burden to consumers as the average speeding ticket costs $150.
So, how can you avoid this" The answer is a two part solution: Drive at or below the posted speed limit – this is the most important rule of all when behind the wheel. And second, install a laser/radar detector in your vehicle.
Many drivers falsely believe that having a laser/radar detector in their personal vehicle is illegal, but that is not true. According to the American Automobile Association (AAA), it is legal to have a laser/radar detector in a personal vehicle in all states except Washington D.C. and Virginia. Only commercial vehicles are not permitted to have them installed nationwide. Since I started driving, I have always driven at the posted speed limit or a little below it. But when the Escort staff contacted me to test their latest Max 360, I immediately jumped on the opportunity.
