Beltronic GX65 testamonial

Check out the Bel RX65

After receiving a speeding ticket and paying fines and attending driving school I purchased a Beltronic GX65 radar detector. The GX65 radar detector provides precision in long range warnings against speed traps, and conventional laser and radar detectors. This detector has the most amazing features. First of all its size is very accommodating. It fits easily on the dash of your vehicle with a quick release mounting system so that you can remove the detector and it not is visible while your car is parked. The display features include five levels of brightness as well as a complete darkness mode. The LED lighting provides bright readable and reliable messages.

This detector has built in a GPS system as well as a safety camera database which provides warning locations throughout the country. The mark locator which enables the driver to add known speed traps as well as red light cameras and other spots for references in the future

Other great features include l pop radar alerts, an advanced auto scan, clear voice alerts with volume control. There is also an auto mute feature which allows the user to turn off the voice activation alerts. The options are all user friendly (brightness controls with dark mode as mentioned earlier, as well as the volume control).

The GX65 has the ability to pick up all band forms of both radar and laser that any law enforcement patrol may be using. The detector has speed sensitivity as well as a speed check function which provides the driver with real time protection based on your driving speed.

This detector also has programmable features which include power on indicators, voice alerts, and a power on sequence also a signal meter. The feature can be placed in a city mode pattern as well as for highway driving. The many functions allows any techie person the ability to custom his/her detector for personal use.

One of the nicest features of this detector is that eliminates one of the biggest complaints that most owners of other radar detectors and laser jammers have is the false alarms. Many of the detectors will alarm at convent stores, shopping malls, etc… you can be sure that when your detector alarms it is for a specific reason and not at the doors to your local Safeway.

Beltronics GX65 also comes with the quick release windshield mounting kit, a smart power plug that is coiled for easy use, a travel case and an owner’s manual for references and more explanations of features.

Can Radar Detector Usage Make Our Roads Safer?

SPEED TRAP

This idea sounds like blasphemy to sheriff/highway patrol agencies and to many politicians! Yet the stated goal of every law enforcement agency which patrols our highways and interstates is to make our roads safer. Politicians also tout this goal, complete with halos above their heads, when proposing legislation to ban radar detectors. Presently only about 5% of drivers use radar detectors. Yet, if this number were to rise to at least 10% or perhaps to 15% then law enforcement officers could usefully patrol much larger stretches of our highways while at the same time being far more effective at keeping most motorist speeds within reasonable and safe bounds. Why, you have got to wonder? It's Quite simple because if 10% or more of drivers with radar detectors slow down to the posted speed limit when detecting radar then the effect is that nearly all other drivers will be forced to slow down to the speed limit. Why? Because if 10% or more of drivers with radar detectors have slowed down, then it will either be much more difficult to pass these drivers or because other drivers will see the alerts from the radar detectors within the cars of the 10% or more of drivers who use radar detectors. It really is a simple argument which for example the state of Georgia has employed for years to great effect on their interstate highways even though other states have considerably higher fines for speeding. Thus increased radar detector usage would result not only in our roads being safer, but also in significantly less police needed to patrol given stretches of highways and interstates.

A good example is Virginia where radar detectors are illegal. Many radar detector users note that VA troopers, compared to their own states where radar detectors are legal, must employ nearly four times the manpower to have any effect on reducing speeding or to reduce traffic flow to safe and reasonable limits, quite simply because VA motorists who can't use radar detectors are completely unaware that they are under surveillance by law enforcement. Moreover, VA law enforcement tends to only go after motorists who exceed 80 m.p.h. since then additional and very expensive revenue generating "reckless driving" fines are imposed, regardless of the fact that the general traffic flow on VA' rural and highways and interstates averages 78 m.p.h.! In other words, VA politicians have made it "extremely profitable" to only go after drivers within VA who have excessively exceeded the posted speed limit or who are driving at more than 80 m.p.h.. So this brings up another reason to use a radar detector. Contrary to what most law enforcement agencies and politicians preach, the bountiful revenue from speeding citations consistently and politically outweighs all agency cited safety goals of keeping our roads safer for all motorists.

The point which is trying to be made is that, contrary to what both the general public and many politicians erroneously perceive, is that radar detectors are far from the "evil" or illegal devices which they have been made out to be. The radar detector manufactures have known all of the above facts for years. This is why they have no moral reservations regarding the products which they manufacture, market and sell. Its about time that the general public becomes aware of the numerous positive benefits of using radar detectors. These devices, when properly and intelligently used, actually make motorists safer drivers — simply because they are far more aware of both their driving habits and their surrounding driving conditions. Moreover, politicians who are truly interested in making our highways and interstates safer, regardless of revenue, should realize that motorists using radar detectors are less likely to excessively speed, are more likely to drive at or very close to the posted speed limit, are more likely to be more alert and aware of other vehicles and road conditions, and that they have a positive effect on slowing down other motorists who are not using radar detectors. In other words, radar detectors communicate to motorists that they are under surveillance and that they should slow down to the posted speed limit. Yet this only works if police officers transmit radar gun signals and if motorists are allowed or even encouraged to freely use radar detectors to receive these signals in order to "get the message" from law enforcement that they are aggressively monitoring traffic conditions.

What Is a Radar Detector?

Check out the Escort Passport 8500.

A radar detector is a simple radio frequency receiver which is tuned to detect a microwave radio signal frequency produced by a police radar gun. A lot of other devices also produce these same radio frequencies. A radar detector simply produces visual and audio alerts which get stronger as the radar detector gets closer to the source of the microwave radio signal.The automatic door opener at your local supermarket, which your kids love to run up to so that they can watch the doors magically open, most likely uses a microwave radio transceiver which is very similar to the one used inside a radar gun. Some security systems use microwave transceivers to detect the motion of burglars. So in essence a radar detector is just like your car's AM radio in that a radar detector alert gets stronger, just as your AM radio gets louder the closer you get to the broadcast signals from the AM radio station's antenna. Indeed, some very old radar detector models had a speaker which simply produced a tone that became louder as the radar detector got closer to the radio source. In short, radar detectors are simply radio receivers, and nothing more, nothing less.

The general public holds the very common misconception that using a radar detector is either illegal or that the only reason for using a radar detector is to break the law. In the United States, radar detectors are completely legal to use in all states except in Virginia and in the District of Columbia. Indeed, many states repealed their bans against radar detectors after the 55 mph national speed limit was repealed by congress years ago. Yet these very same states have seen a reduction over the years in highway death rates even though they both raised their speed limits and made radar detectors legal to use. Moreover, the vast majority of experienced drivers who use radar detectors do not use these devices to intentionally break the law. Instead most radar detector owners use these devices to be more aware of their driving habits so that they do not break the law. There are exceptions of course. Most notable are teenagers and young adults who are still infatuated with the thrill of driving a car and sometimes driving really fast! We have all been there as a young adult. If you don't admit to this then either you are lying to yourself or you were one of the small class of young drivers who took their driving responsibilities extraordinarily seriously. Well, regardless of whether or not these young drivers have a radar detector, their excessive driving habits will eventually get them a speeding ticket. Radar detectors do not make you immune to speeding tickets, and a radar detector is not a magical device which gives you either the right to break the law or the ability to do so with impunity. Any experienced driver who has used a radar detector for a considerable amount of time will tell you this too.

Most experienced radar detector users generally drive with the flow of traffic and use these handy electronic devices to alert them about the presence of an upcoming speed trap, to frequently alert them on days when law enforcement is very active, to pass the time on long road trips, and to help keep them more alert to their driving and the road conditions in general. Indeed, years ago a study was published which statistically proved that drivers who use radar detectors were safer drivers and were involved in fewer accidents compared to drivers who do not use radar detectors. These very same experienced radar detector users also know that no electronic device, no matter how sophisticated, is going to prevent them from getting speeding tickets if they consistently speed. On days when law enforcement is very active, experienced radar detector users simply continuously drive at or below the posted speed limit and then relax and enjoy their drive. This generally causes other cars to drive slower as well. Yet radar detector owners do then enjoy watching other drivers who are speeding being pulled over simply because they weren't aware that their speed was being monitored by law enforcement.

This is a good question, especially if you are a law abiding citizen! Quite simply, to help you be more aware of your driving habits, to stay better alert on long road trips, to be more aware of traffic around you, and to be more aware of road conditions in general. Numerous NHTSA and state studies have shown that the majority of drivers tend to drive at speeds which they feel are both comfortable and safe for the general road conditions -- regardless of the posted speed limit. This is why the government and states saw a sudden drop in accident and highway death rates when speed limits were raised from the national 55 mph speed limit. What? That doesn't seem to make sense. After all, we have all been told for years that speed kills! When the national speed limit was 55 mph, most drivers ignored it. Yet many conscientious drivers did drive at the 55 mph speed limit. This created large discrepancies in the speeds of vehicles on highways and interstates and contributed to accidents. A U.S. government publication notes that motorists are much safer when all vehicles are traveling at very similar speeds. Lane changes, one of the prevailing causes of highway accidents, are in general much safer to accomplish if all of the surrounding vehicles are traveling at similar speeds.

As mentioned, drivers tend to drive at a speed which they feel is both safe and comfortable -- regardless of the posted speed limit. Unfortunately in some areas the speed limit is set at an unreasonably slower speed compared to the speed at which 85% of drivers feel is the correct and safe driving speed. The general public commonly refers to these areas as "speed traps", and law enforcement and local officials love these areas since they are a source of juicy revenue from speeding tickets. This is a good example of where a radar detector can save you, the law abiding citizen who is merely safely traveling along with the general flow of traffic, from being singled out to receive a speeding ticket. Regardless of what law enforcement agencies proclaim, out-of-state motorists tend to be unfairly targeted since the presumption is that out-of-state motorists will simply pay their fines rather than waiting around for a couple of weeks for their court dates. The right to a speedy trial pretty much goes out the window for out-of-state motorists since most courts are backlogged to begin with, and since very few out-of-state motorists will either hang around or return for their court date to rightfully contest an unfair and biased speeding ticket.

Radar detectors are fun on long road trips! Why? Because a radar detector gives you something to do and to observe while driving along for hours on end. Some radar detector models even have features to deliberately help keep you alert on long drives. Thus a radar detector can help to keep you much more alert on those long and monotonous drives. More importantly and especially when traveling out-of-state and through unfamiliar territory, a radar detector will keep you more alert as you approach towns, cities, or large metropolitan areas. This extra "road awareness" is a key factor not only in helping to prevent you from getting an unintentional speeding ticket, but also to let you know of areas where the local law enforcement likes to operate. Law enforcement, in their effort to make our highways safer, likes to operate radar in areas where both speeding and accidents are common. Thus a radar detector can serve as your advance warning system, much like a weather radio warns you of approaching severe weather, for oncoming road conditions and local driver habits which could make your drive more dangerous.

A radar detector can warn you of an accident scene which is located a mile or more down the road ahead. Many law enforcement agencies teach their officers to leave their radar guns turned on when they are at an accident scene. Thus your radar detector can give you advance warning that "something is up" regarding the road ahead. This in turn will make you more aware that you should be prepared to slow down well before approaching an accident scene. Some municipalities have also implemented the Safety Warning System (SWS) by installing special radar transmitters which radiate warning messages to motorists equipped with radar detectors which can both detect and display SWS text warning messages. This is a technology which, although around for years, has only seen sparse implementation across the United States. SWS is in need of some serious federal funding since radar detector manufacturers have equipped their products with this feature for several years now. Imagine approaching a railroad crossing and having your radar detector warn you via a text message that a train is approaching, or imagine seeing a text message for an approaching emergency vehicle! The life which your radar detector could save may well be your own.

This idea sounds like utter blasphemy to most law enforcement agencies and to many politicians! In their view this is akin to cracking the seals on the Book of the Dead and waiting for all of Hades and global destruction to break loose. Yet the stated goal of every law enforcement agency which patrols our highways and interstates is to make our roads safer. Politicians also tout this goal, complete with halos above their heads, when proposing legislation to ban radar detectors. Presently only about 4% of drivers use radar detectors. Yet, if this number were to rise to at least 10% or perhaps to 15% then law enforcement officers could usefully patrol much larger stretches of our highways while at the same time being far more effective at keeping most motorist speeds within reasonable and safe bounds.

Why? Because if 10% or more of drivers with radar detectors have slowed down, then it will either be much more difficult to pass these drivers or because other drivers will see the alerts from the radar detectors within the cars of the 10% or more of drivers who use radar detectors.

Radar, Lasers, and you

Check out the Bel RX65

Over 41 million speeding tickets were written nationwide in 2003. That translates to approximately a 21% chance every year that you, the average law abiding citizen, will be issued a speeding ticket. The average driver is practically guaranteed of getting a speeding ticket once every five years. The average speeding ticket fine including the court costs is $150. That translates to over 6 billion additional revenue dollars for your local government every year! And of course a speeding ticket almost always results in higher insurance premiums for several years. A single speeding ticket could cost you over seven hundred and fiffty dollars in increased insurance premiums over 3 years since most insurance companies surcharge over a 3 year period. No wonder insurance companies buy radar guns,and lasers for police departments. The reality is that insurance companies reap very substantial financial windfalls, to the tune of over 10 billion every year, for their relatively cheap investments in equipment.

Almost every motorist at some point gets a speeding citation which they feel was either unfairly or erroneously given. Yet motorists rarely fight these citations since the citing law enforcment officer is also an officer of the court. In the eyes of the court, the officer's word is always golden yet the motorist's word is always suspect. Unfair speeding citations which result in fines and increased insurance rates are what drive motorists to purchase radar detectors. There are literally hundreds of radar detector models to chose from since the market is flooded with cheap import brand radar detectors which have poor performance. On the other hand the general consensus is that the products produced in North America by Bel, Escort, Whistler and Valentine perform extremely well. This still leaves a lot of good radar detector models to choose from.

Where can you go in order to learn about radar detectors or other types of speed surveillance countermeasures? Quite simply, the only place aside from manufacturer web sites are on-line forums which are dedicated to the use of these products. Radar detector and speed countermeasures forums forums are filled with knowledgeable enthusiasts who can answer all of your questions and help guide you in finding the product which is best suited for both your needs and your budget. Recommended forums, in order of popularity:

Radar Detector Reviews radarreviews.net is a relatively new forum which also is an excellent source of information.

The Radar Detector Jammer Forum radardetector.net is both the most popular and oldest online enthusiast's forum about all types of speed measurement countermeasures. The forum was created by "Radar Roy" who is a retired law enforcement officer.

The Speed Trap Hunter Forum speedtraphunter.net is more of crossover forum between the radar detector and law enforcement industries, which is unusual since both industries tend to be at odds with each other.

One additional and highly recommended additional online resource, even though its not a forum, is:

Guys of LIDAR (http://www.guysoflidar.com/) provides a wealth of information and independent test reports for various radar detector and laser countermeasure products. Guys of LIDAR is a group of individuals who independently test products, yet refuse to accept any form of financial compensation or gifts from industry manufacturers.

Beltronics's new GX65 Professional Series radar detector is nothing short of an engineering marvel which combines Bel's proven RX65 performance with GPS, giving the new GX65 radar detector a host of very useful features never seen before in any Bel radar detector. What else makes the new Beltronics GX65 radar detector so special compared to conventional radar detectors? This is a question which invites a multi-part answer in order to fully describe the individual feature benefits built into Bel's new GX65 pro Series radar detector.

Bel's GX65 radar detector has excellent performance with regards to detecting all police radar and laser gun models which are used throughout North America, including lasers which operate in "stealth" mode. The Bel GX65 easily detects all police radar guns with ease and with up to ten times more range compared to virtually all import brand radar detector models.

The GX65's AlertLock feature gives the user the ability to permanently lock out known false alerts which are primarily caused by microwave automatic door openers used at business entrances. Once a false alert location is stored into the GX65's computer, then the GX65 will no longer alert to these false alert sources when the user drives by this location in the future.

The Bel GX65's built-in and updateable Safety Camera Database alerts you when you are approaching safety camera equipped intersections. The general public commonly refers to these safety cameras as "red light" cameras since their primary purpose is to raise revenue. Your GX65 radar detector will warn you ahead of time as you approach a safety camera equipped traffic intersection.

The GX65's Variable Speed Sensitivity mode, an alternative to TrueLock, will automatically lower its X and K band sensitivity when you are driving at considerably slower speeds. No longer will you have to listen to a conventional radar detector giving you constant false alerts from nearby microwave door openers and security systems while you are driving slowly, driving in stop-and-go traffic, or stopped at a traffic light.

The GX65, thanks to its built-in GPS technology, also allows the user to mark specific locations such as police speed traps, school and construction zones, and new red light camera locations.

The GX65 is Web Ready. GX65 owners can download Bel's software program which allows the GX65 to be programmed via its built-in USB port with a updated Safety Camera Databases or with new firmware.

SpeedCheck technology allows the GX65 to automatically display your speed when the GX65 begins to alert to police radar or laser guns. The GX65 can additionally be programmed to always display your speed.

In summary, the new Beltronics GX65 Professional Series radar detector is far more than just an ordinary radar detector. The GX65's superb set of very useful features makes it one of the most technologically advanced radar detectors which you can buy from any manufacturer at any price. Once you have used Bel's new GX65, you will never go back to using a conventional radar detector.
