Repeal the Virginia Ban on the use of Radar Detectors
To/Against/For: Against the Virginia Radar Detector BanVirginia is home to fantastic natural wonders, a vibrant business community, a rich and important history, and a terrific quality of life. Virginia is also home to a radar detector ban. In a state with so much to offer, it's unfortunate that an unjustified ban on radar detectors could blemish its reputation.
Despite the lack of any positive benefits, Virginia is the only state that bans the use of these common devices. In the past three decades, there were over 100 attempts in 33 states to enact similar bans, but only in Virginia and Connecticut did these misguided efforts succeed. Connecticut repealed its ban in 1992, and it is time for Virginia to do the same.
Take some time to read the facts and I'm sure you'll want to help us stop the ban!

| Dave | Radar detectors are used by people who disregard the law. I wish that it was against the law to sell them. Anyone who uses one is a common asshole. | |
| Billy Young | Radar Detectors are nothing but very simple radio receivers. The FCC rules (Part 15) clearly state that jurisdiction of the Airwaves is the sole purview of the Federal Government. There are many reasons for this, interstate commerce issues being but one. Hence, a state has no jurisdiction over the regulating the airwaves and can not enact or enforce law such law. |
