OK I just drove 1,200 miles down to Miami and can report back on this.
With a V1 you can develop a sense for what is a collision avoidance radar vs a police radar with a little experience. Most my falses came from vehicles headed North as I went South. As I stated most falses come from rear of vehicle. 2 or 3 or even 4 units lite up the V1. As you get past a car traveling your direction they stop completely once you get by offender. When they trip the V1 going the other way, unit bumps on with 2-3 bogeys showing, then quickly trails off. Most police traps are single units, ahead, hitting unit with increased strength as you get closer.
I probably had 30-40 falses going south (north bound vehicles), and got use to them quickly. I only passed 3-4 (going my way) on whole trip. It was a pleasant drive, I'm happy to report that I 95 is complete the whole way and is posted 70 MPH probably 95%. I just cruised at 78-79 most of the way and made south of Jacksonville from Philly in 14 hours...driving a Civic, LOL!!
