Believe it or not, radar detectors have been around since the 1960s, when the first radar guns were introduced. And, as you can probably guess, it didn't take long for clever folks to come up with ways to detect those radar signals. Fast forward to today, and you've got all sorts of fancy radar detectors that can pick up on all sorts of frequencies.
Now, you might be wondering why some states have laws against radar detectors, while others don't. Well, it's pretty simple: some states just don't want you to be able to avoid those speeding tickets! But, in New York, the law is actually pretty lenient when it comes to radar detectors - as long as you're using a portable device, you're good to go!
