does the radar detector only goes off when a radar is being used?
I'm asking because sometimes I'll drive by a cop car and my radar detector wouldn't go off, but sometimes it does..
it goes off when it is supposed...
The purpose of radar detectors are to detect the radar while its bouncing off traffic ahead of you. If you are the only one on the road and the detector goes off, you're already caught. Peeps confuse that.
