Radar detector paid for itself this week

Was in an older part of town to visit my grandfather this week. Leaving, I got on a road with a 50mph speed limit. In old folks town, this means "better do 40 just to be safe".
I got behind one old folk, doing the 40, and passed without incident, of course I had to exceed the speed limit to get around him quickly. Old folk #2 wasn't far off, doing 40. I go to pass when my K band hits 8. I let off, and sure enough around the curve was a cop scanning for speeders. Patiently passed by without incident, then passed the old folk shortly after.
I know they aren't fool-proof, but if they save you from just one ticket they've paid for themselves, IMO, So I now have a 'free' radar detector!
