Jack Whoa There, Speed Racer

“Well hello, Speed Racer.  Stay in your car and keep your hands where I can see them. I need to see your license and registration.  <looks at driver’s license>  Ohhhhhh…you have a German last name.  You thought you were on the Autobahn, didntcha?”

“No, officer.”

“Well is there a medical emergency that would explain why I clocked you going 91mph in a 65mph zone?”

“Yes, officer.   I can feel a seizure coming on and I wanted to get home as fast as possible.”

“Whoa Nelly, that’s the best one I’ve heard all week.  You got proof?”

“If we wait long enough, you’ll have a front row seat.  Or you can just look at my medical ID bracelet.”

“Well look at that.  We got real-life epileptic with a life-long cover story.  But, I’m not buying it, Buckey.  If you need medical assistance, you need to call 9-1-1 instead of trying to drive 91mph.  Wait here while I run your plate and write your ticket.”

Speed Racer now has to decide whether he should fake a seizure, but all of this could have been avoided.  New Egg has an entry-level WHISTLER XTR-130 Laser/Radar Detector for a mere $30 and about $2 in shipping.  This detector is rated 5 stars after 2 reviews at New Egg (and 5 stars after 3 reviews at Buy.com).  It offer 360 degree protection from all kinds of lasers and it also has X, K, Ka, and Super Wideband Ka detection.  There are 3 different city modes and the ability to adjust what kind of sensitivity level you want.  Say it with me, Speed Racer: “$30 at New Egg”.

Now go fake that seizure.
