I work in Irving so I use mine everyday...Law dont play....I think my only real problem is I yield at stop signs....but rarely go over the speed limit in my truck. It's too big for me so I keep it 5 mph under all the time. I think I've taken it over 70 one time.

Last time I remember even have one was back around 2007 or 2008...haven't needed one because I usually only go around 5 over on the freeways..in most places that's close to 75mph which is plenty fast enough to get around. Haven't had a speeding ticket since the same time.

run a v1 in the car and truck. there is one sound it makes and you know to slow down. all the others are mostly the new cars.
i have the new escort 360 max super duper whatever in the wife’s ride because it has an app. she likes apps. it seems as good as the v1.
i speed like a true bro, so the extra time i get to scrub speed is nice.

I still have several laying around.... none have been used in the past many years.
They're kinda like the 10-15 old cell phones we've got hidden away in a junk drawer... no need to keep 'em but just can't bring myself to throw 'em in the trash.

I've had a Valentine V1 for close to 20 years now. It's updatable and I've sent it in only once. Only time I've ever gotten a ticket was when speeding alone on the road, which has happened twice. It's more than paid for itself in the time I've owned it. Safe bet is to keep it 5 MPH over the speed limit. Unfortunately I have trouble doing that.

Had one back in the day. These days I just pretty much drive the speed limit. It's just more peaceful to not sweat it and it's pretty much never worth speeding just to get somewhere a few minutes earlier. I'm usually early wherever I'm going anyway. I leave early because I hate being late.
