Radar detectors...
I noted that my detector will occasionally pick up reflected k band signal when you pull up behind some vehicles.....like at a red light ...... The signal is generated by the distronic system. I have the top of line passport model and it seems to be able to handle the issue and not go crazy with false alerts......anybody else having any problems?

Yes and also from behind (Valentine 1) when other cars are transmitting K band.
I will pass a car on the freeway then "beep..."
To bad car makers use the K band for this feature.
More false alarms than ever.
