isn't that the whole point.

I think you mean that you rather take a chance with fewer warnings. My friend got an Escort (the wireless one) I've driven with her many times and she's an excellent driver who is constantly aware of her surroundings.
well last week she told me she got nailed on the Garden State Parkway on her way back to New York. She said the warning never came and that she was doing 15-20 miles over the limit.
There's something to be said to be said for the V1's sensitivity. If you decide to pass up the sensitivity beware, the convenience could cost you dearly when that insurace hike comes in the mail.
