even if you did, the radar gun has clocked your speed so even if you do slow down theyve got you anyway.
radar detectors work on the theory that you might pick up radar scatter from the car targetted in front of you,giving you a few seconds to respond. if your being targetted your caught.
thats how i understand radar detectors to work.
