|Come on, people.  I have never seen or read anything that shows that Radar

jammers

(i.e
|always 65 MPH) or a percentage of your real speed (80 MPH *.8 = 64 MPH, 70
|MPH *.8 = 56 MPH, etc).  In either case, a cop is perceptive enough to know
|there is something funny going on.

I know nothing of radar jammers, BUT...

I read a story about the One Lap of America "Race" and it seemed the cars 
which were the most successful at avoiding speeding tickets were the ones 
with radar jammers.  This would lead me to believe that they work pretty 
well.
