they do, but 1 out of 10 cops in va actually run it, so its rare for you to be pulled over for a radar detector. i run a radar detector and i havent had any problems

a GTI.
ok so here is the only question that is really important...if you get pulled over for it, what is the penalty? points? no points? do they take they radar away from you? if you are slick and hide it real quick, can they search for it?

To my knowledge is a small penalty. I dont think that they actually take the detector from you, but I'm not sure on that. I have a Escort 8500 X50 and I know that and the Bel RX65 both block from the V2 Radar Detector Detector. However they're starting to roll out the Spectre III Radar detector detector in some states and the only detector out there known to block from being seen is the Bel STI which is terribly expensive last I looked.

here is a informative link.

Only a small fraction of officers have RDDs in VA. It's a minor worry. This may change, however, as the spectre III rolls out.

If you're worried about it being seen, check out the RX-75. It's a remote mount detector. I've got one and it's paid for itself endlessly especially in blocking laser. I've been hit 5 or 6 times with laser, once in triple digit speeds on a long straight stretch. I've never had a laser ticket and as long as I keep my eyes open and my counter-measures up to date, I probably never will.

RX75 in my dub:
