r u talking about scanner or a CB radio? i agree if you drive down road that you dont know, or roads that you wont see anyone for a couple of days its a good idea to get a CB radio. on a good day a CB radio can travle 20-25 miles. scanners only let you listen in to convos

Detects signals wherever they come from. No gaps.. I have the Whistler DE1700 and it has the 360° Protection. It has saved my A$$ pleanty of times.. Especially Highway driving..
Just remember.. If you plan on getting a radar detector. Don't go cheap! You get what you pay for!

tru. radar detectors will warn you if there is a cop running radar around you. but wut if no one is around you, lets say your driving down the highway and your the only car on the road.... and the officer isnt running radar yet, you pass the cop doing 20 over the speed limit, he lasers you, the cop is gonna give you a new hole.
think about it.... is it worth it? to speed? in my eyes, its not.
