Police scanners in your car are useless because I don't see why you would want to listen to what the cops are saying.

Are you talking to a police radar detectors?

If you want a police scanner, just use an app called Zello on your phone and look for one to join.

I believe it is illegal to have a radar detector in your car in Virginia

What is your budget? You can get some from $50-$500

The cheap ones are useless, they pick up anything from other peoples radars to the automatic doors at stores.

Most cops don't shoot in K or Ka anymore and use laser. Laser scanners are expensive as hell and even if you buy one and it picks up a laser, youre screwed cause that means the cop is aiming at you and already clocked your speed.

Only one worth getting are jammers but those can easily go over 1k.
