Eat it?
naw not really, he probally still thinks it works but it dusnt, prob dusnt no how to use it
It's a shame he stole it, but really if it's turned off, all he can do is strip it for what parts he can can take.
(I have no idea what it is btw)
If it runs on batteries I guess he can take those.
it runs from the battery e.g. cig lighter. he took the cable but like i sed it is dun by GPS satalite so it wont find anything coz its been deactivated, just wondered wot he cud do with it really
he can sell it someone who doesn't know - plus he could call all friends and they'll suddenly think your cool
y wud they think am kool
I have no idea :unsure:
What is a snooper? :blink:

Ah! Not a lot of those around here (yet) so it definitely wasn't me.Quote:

I have an item an electrical engineer friend of mine constructed for me about fifteen years ago; he calls it a "radar communicator".
It apparently reads the beam from a radar gun and "tells" it you are going the speed limit, be it 55 mph, 65 mph, what have you.
I've always been afraid to run with it, because any cop worth his salt can tell the difference between 55 and 70-75 mph bare-eyed or by the relative speed of surrounding traffic, and you know damn well that if they suspect you've got something like that on-board, you and your car will be impounded until they find it.
All this before the requisite court appearance and levying of the attendent HUGE fine and other penalties.
Not this kid.
I have this simple thing fitted as standard in all my vehicles that stops us getting caught by a speed trap.
It's called a speedometer
I have one of those too, unfortunately I also have a lead foot, and bad luck. So I have a cobra Radar-detector mounted on my windshield :devil:Quote:

This may just apply for hand-held devices though

Mine picks up for close to 2 miles in this situation. :cool:
I am similarly equipped.Quote:

There are times and places to "make time", and these I take advantage of.

As you come towards one of those yellow or other colourd cameras its lets you know from 500m. As for guns as others have sed most the time they get u b4 it tells you. The newer models tells you sooner which i am getting next with insurance money
