Not true. The cheapies are junk but some eg Bel make really good ones
, according to magazine tests. However even the best do not give a
big margin of safety, so slow down as soon as it goes off! I have had
detectors, and one certainly saved me a ticket. Generally when I have
a detector on a trip I don't see a cop out of town!

My current unit incorporates a laser detector (of doubtful use) and
passive jammer (extremely useful if it works).
