Hi
Remember that use of speed camera alerts is illegal in some countries such as France and can result in very heavy fines

The fine in France can be up to ‚¬1500 and they can, at their discretion, CONFISCATE THE VEHICLE (sorry about shouting) but if the device cannot be confiscated 'in isolation' then they can (have have) seize your vehicle.



Also, from the AA website


"Effective from 3 January 2012 French laws prohibiting drivers from carrying devices capable of detecting speed cameras have been extended to include devices able to warn or inform of the location of speed cameras e.g. satnav or gps systems capable of showing speed camera sites as PoI."

And don't forget your two breathylysers as well.












Why two?



Well if they pull you over and you have to use one of your type-approved ones to prove your sobriety (remember they are random checks in France) then you still need one functioning one in the car to enable to drive off!



There was an article on the radio saying that 'Le Plod' operate in pairs, often pulling over the same car twice within a few kilometers (tourists BTW are exempt, according to the AA, until November) which means that you use both breathylysers and therefore cannot drive on without paying the ‚¬13 cash fine.



So, a pack of three it is then
