Radar detectors are being made illegal. Laser ones are still ok though. My snooper uses Laser detectors to find mobile vans and policemen with the handheld ones. I think radar detectors let you know if a camera is live or not, and if the police are in a car whether they are looking at you. Thats what I have been led to believe anyway.
The obvious problem with all laser detectors is, that it only detects the laser when its active and pointed at or around your car. So, by the time the detector alerts you, youre problably already caught. Pointless IMO.

most police forces now use laser, as it is more accurate. Some may still use the old radar guns though.
Most GPS systems only detect laser not radar.
A radar detector such as all the pre GPS systems snooper S5/valentine 1 etc will detect radar and hence you will be able to tell if normal fixed gatso cams are live or not. Howeverthere are many other cameras out these days that dont throw out laser or radar and hence a GPS system is best.
