The logic of this one confuses me.

Nobody can fully concentrate for 100% of the time. All of us have occasional lapses which could easily result in an accident or a fine and licence endorsements. Collisions, fines or penalty points can all result in increased car insurance premiums to say nothing of the implications for personal safety.
80% of auto accidents involve driver distraction.* When speed cameras are placed in accident blackpots, using a camera detector makes sure that you are not distracted at a vital time, i.e. when you're driving along that stretch of road that has a bad history of accidents. Camera detectors remind you to be paying attention when you need it most.
Almost 60% of red-light running in the USA is caused by drivers not paying attention or becoming confused.** A camera detector makes sure you won't accidentally run a light yourself by drawing your attention in advance to the dangerous junction approaching. It gives you time to think, concentrate and plan ahead safely.
33% of red-light running is intentional.** Red light cameras are placed where they are most likely to catch red light runners so being reminded to pay extra attention at these junctions will not only help you avoid a fine yourself... it may even help you avoid a reckless driver!
Camera detectors are not niche products designed for speeders or red light runners. They are genuine road safety systems that help improve a responsible driver's situational awareness
