I’ve never owned a radar detector but I remember a friend telling me he kept an addresses and postage paid bubble shopping envelope in his car. The theory was he would toss the detector in that and seal it and the police don’t have jurisdiction to open mail.
Has anyone heard of that?

We must have the same friend! His padded bubble envelope is actually addressed with postage to somebody he knows in the USA, apparently this makes it even more complicated for it to be seized and opened. I don't currently own one and don't plan on testing this theory either.

I was pulled over on the belief that I had one in my car on the 401 once. Just so happens that that time I did not (I spotted the police car and slowed). We were pulled over for 45minutes while the officer went through the car very thoroughly - fine tooth comb type of thing. Other police cars showed up to keep us company. Had they found an inexplicable light on the dash they would have taken the dash apart.
If you drive with one in ON and get caught, just hand it over and take your lumps. Its not worth them pulling your car apart looking on the side of the road looking for it.
