I got caught in another speed trap. Does anyone know of a device that
can warm me if I go over a preset speed. My aunt had an Oldsmobile back
in the 60's that had a buzzer on her speedometer. She could set the
speed she wanted. I have a lazier/ radar detector, but by the time it
goes off they already got me.

Gary,
I can appreciate your experiance of getting a ticket.
Back in those days when they had the speed monitors in the cars, people did
not like it as it irritated them, so the factory quit supplying them.
Maybe JC Whitney might have one.

How about a Pro shift light tach. Set the big red light to come on at rpm of the speed you want?

Gary,
Seems like that should be a phone app, I know there are GPS units that do
that.

Obd plug in devices like those sold by zubie can do that and more. A simple
speedometer app will help as well, but sucks down phone battery.

Miss Garmin, Murphy's live in companion, has a annoying voice that says
"You are exceeding the speed limit". The voice you love to hate.
I once had her bitch at me aboard a Washington State Ferry, when we
were crossing from Kingston to Edmonds. We were in the coach on the auto
deck. Engine off, brakes set. But the ferry was moving faster than the
speed limit she was programmed with. It is a feature that you can turn off,
but the easiest is to just turn down the volume control.

The GPS program on my smartphone "CoPilot" by ALK has a feature that allows you to set how many MPH over the limit it will warn you at. Mine is set to 5, now all I have to do is actually listen to it.

My portable Lawrence Aviation GPS ties into the auto-pilot of

Mine basically just does left and right.

I have the best anti-speed trap devioce when I go to dog shows in The Mousenmobile. I often travel with a friend who also works the shows - we leave our wives home with the menageries. Anyhow, I got busted headed for Alexandria LA going South off I20. And, as the cop is looking at my license a quiet voice to my right says "Officer, would this make a difference?" and the cop took the offered card "Yes sir, now there's probably another officer down the road where the speed changes again. Yall please drive carefully and have a nice day." And hands the card back and off we go.
The only drawback to this method is, you got to spend 30 years as a State Trooper, which my bud has done in New Yark. Professional Courtesy.

THX guys. Lots of great idea. Most I have not thought of. I will look
into several of these options. I like to drive a little over the speed
limit. Maybe not in the GMC. LOL
