if a cop looks inside your car with you in it. and the radar/laser detector is right there on the windshield adn it's off can they still bust you for it? or does it have to be on for them to bust you?

The state of VA can not keep your radar detector!! If they do, you can get it back in court, there not illegal to posses just to use. So if a cop takes it, go to court pay your fine and pick it up, if you dont he will be usinbg it. I always have mine on, do not know what I would do with out it.
Most cops in VA do NOT use instint on or laser. I know because I drive almost 700miles a week on local interstates with it all the time, the only time you need to worry about that is real late at night when there is very little traffic on the road.
If ya dont buy the valentine its your mistake....

yeah but is it concidered used if you have it plugged in but the device turned off?

So if you get pulled, hide the detector, unplug the cord from it and hide that somewhere far away from the actual device. If he finds it, just hope it's not warm.
