Reminds me a friend in the policing business driving a unmarked car. He mentioned that he liked to play games with owners on radar detectors. He would flip on the radar and trigger the detector; the driver would slow down. Later, the driver would speed up. He would repeat the process as long as he was around him. Once, a radar detector owner finally picked up the detector and throw it out the window. He got stopped for littering and throwing things from the car. He was let off though after he went back and picked it up. Sounded like fun. -----Original Message----- From: pic microcontroller discussion list [mailto:PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU]On Behalf Of Dwayne Reid Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2004 1:48 PM To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU Subject: Re: [OT]: detecting emergency vehicles At 10:41 AM 6/15/2004, Harold Hallikainen wrote: >OK, WAY off topic, but MAYBE it could be done with a PIC...

Do a web search for "trolling for tailgates". What you are describing is on-going serious fun for a few mental midgets on American highways.
