Geico has purchased radar guns in several states, I know they have done
it here in CT.
I have also heard horror stories about people that have been insured by Geico
for years and then had 1 accident and were immediately dropped. And once
you've been dropped by any insruance company you become labled a high
risk, and end up forking out 3 or 4 times what you should be for insurance.
My suggestion, stay where you are, or shop around but STAY AWAY from Geico!
