That being said, I still don't understand your paranoia about getting stopped for having a detector in NY, they are legal here. I socialize with a lot of cops, both Nassau County and NYPD and none of them have ever said that they pull people over for having detectors any more or less than peope without them. In fact, they state quite the opposite, they don't care.

I'm curious, where were you when you got pulled over? Did the officer say that you being in possession of a detector had any bearing on him pulling you over or is that an assumption by you?
