down here (louisiana), it's no problem. in fact, as far as know, none of the states down here (south-central and southeast) have a law against them. virginia and d.c. are the only two places i've heard of it being illegal.

but i don't think they take it from you. you do get a ticket though.

you should check out videos of the gumball run 3000. there's an m3 that got pulled over for his in virginia (i think).

but just find out before you go places. according to V1's web site...

"Some states and municipalities have laws prohibiting the use, or the possession, or both, of radar detectors."

so some states may not rule it illegal, but some counties (or parishes as they're called in louisiana) may give you a ticket for one. just don't be stupid. that's all i can say.
