I drive a lot for work in rural and city areas. Windy and hilly areas. Marin to Eureka, Ca and the cops are swarming like I have never seen before everywhere collecting money to keep their departments afloat. I missed one speed limit change on the road to Eureka, and there has to be some 40-50 changes on the 3.5 hour drive. I was doing 71 in a 55. Whatever, I have to pay this time, but I need some advanced warning for activity in the area. I don't think I need the luxury or expense of situational awareness with arrows that Valentine offers for $400. I know that many law enforcement use that instant on crap. Whats effective that can give me a heads up that is reasonably priced and where do I buy? Also remotely mounted would be cool. Thanks
