Are those still a thing? Are they still useful?

Don’t Apple and Google maps essentially do that now?

Yes but you're relying on other people to report

Does the automatic door at Schwegmann's still set them off?

I just don't speed. I've made the drive from shreveport to Pierre Part so many times in the last 15 years that I've found 3 or 4 or even 10 mph over the speed limit doesn't really save all that much time.

Have you ever gone 66 in a 65? 26 in a 25? You're breaking the law.

What state do you live in? Sodomy is still illegal in a few states.

R.I.P. Micheal Valentine.
He died last week, and was a legend and innovator in the world of radar detectors.

I have no regrets. Saved my arse many times. The arrows/ threat indicators are the tits.

Waze and don't be the lead car. But the fastest I'm going is still probably in the judgement call range for the cop.
