I've actually gotten pulled over because of my radar detector in Pennsylvania, where it's legal. I had positioned it directly right under the rear view mirror. I was following 3 other cars going about 80MPH in a 65MPH zone. My bel 890 detector found a weak signal, which didnt increase, but was consistent. About 3 miles down the road, cops are alongside the road pointing at people to pull over. 2 out of the 3 cars ahead of me are told to pull over, while I go through. I thought I was safe, but as I'm passing through, a cop stares my car/radar detector down, and jumps in his patrol car. He pulled me over after 2 miles of driving. When he walked up to the car, he kind of laughed at the radar detector and ee asked my why I had one, I really didn't have an answer. Thankfully he gave me a warning, even though he didn't know how fast I was going. Now I position the radar detector further down on the windshield, and I haven't found a problems with it.
