RR, we leave right around the same times, I leave stafford at 7:30 or 7:40 leave Rosslyn slug line around 5:30...never a problem doing 80 most of the way, it gluts up a little but nothing serious.

RoadRunner, you can do 75-80 in HOV-3 in both that afternoons and evenings, trust me, I do it. In fact, most often people are blowing past me. There was a thread like this last year where a bunch of people were claiming its impossible to do, yet I have no problem finding the time windows where it is possible.

What time do you leave?

What's the difference between 75-80 with a detector and 75-80 without one?

I'd prefer not to. I've been in cars that were pulled over before and the wait is no fun. Of course, I've NEVER seen someone pulled over for a radar detector, even though they're illegal in VA. As a slug I doubt I'd notice it in the first place, unless it was obvious.

Here's a dillemma. The HOV lanes on 395 travel at easily 75-80 mph, which is obviously speeding. Would you rided with a driver using a radar detector to "beat the odds?"

Discuss.
