The cops go after fast cars, no matter what they are.

<<Now, I'm a European driver by birth and by training...which means
 I drive a bit faster than the average person on the road does, but 
 I don't drive like a maniac.  Anyone with similar experiences? 
 Should I get a radar detector? At this rate I may as well spend 
 up to a $1,000 and get a return on my investment within a year. 
 Problem is: I'm in Virginia where they are illegal. >>

Slow down.  10 mph over the speed limit gives you enough reaction time 
to slow down, once you spot the cops.
