So radar detectors are illegal?

Mr. Flibble · 2007-08-28 17:35:24

Just got the new rules of the road book through the post. They say [p. 92] that devices which can detect speed detection equipment are illegal. I always thought this was wasn't clearly specified in the law. Anyone know what piece of law says they are illegal?

Was there not even something a while back that the actual Garda website was listing the location of speed traps?

One of the GPS companies has added it to their map database.

But surely prevention is better than punishment afterwards?
Look at the UK - they have the lowest RTA fatality rate, yet all of their camera locations are public.

how could they pay for the cameras if they did that?
