    Car safety options

    You can get rear cameras, navigation, cross traffic warning, smart braking, multiple air bags, etc. but there is one safety feature you will never see offered as an option on any vehicle.

    What is it?

    A radar detector

    Methinks there is a conspiracy in the works.

    My point is they have all kinds of gadgets in cars today that would have never been imagined just 20 years ago.

    But something as simple as a radar detector has never become an option.

    Why?

    Well for one, it's not a safety feature. It's a tool to help you break the law.

    Radar detectors are illegal here in Canada. Police don't give u tickets to keep you and others safe... They do it to generate revenue for the city/county/province/state.

    I'd still love to know why carseller thinks a radar detector is a safety feature.
