Some radar detector ads seem to imply that their purpose
is to increase driver awareness of police and the speed limit laws so
you don't become a criminal by getting a speeding ticket. So you
spend big bucks on a rig just to be reminded that the speed limit is
55mph. (Surrrrrrrre!) Well in this day and age of increasing non-
compliance with the law and the threat of cuts in federal money to
states with a lot of speeders, something should be done to better
remind drivers of the speed limit. Something more than a wimpy "beep
beep" from a fuzzbuster. Well here it is....
Easily mounted on any car, this small radar-seeking missile
will blast off at the slightest hint of a speed trap. It will reduce
the county mountie's tijuana taxi to a pile of smouldering scrap so
that as you (and other motorists) pass by you will be reminded of
the 55mph speed limit and the threat of an expensive ticket. It'll
work wonders, don't you think? Just think of smokey's expression when
his radar gun lights up showing something coming down the road at
700mph or so, and he turns around and sees a missile zeroing in on him!
By the way, this isn't my idea. But it sounded so good that
I decided to try it out. Unfortunately, the first time out the missile
took out the K Mart garden center. It had a radar-operated door opener.
The second time out it got the airport control tower. Poor fellas were
overworked anyhow. I think I have it figured out now, so send your orders
in early! For $13,456.98 it's well worth it.
