Question 2815

If you carry devices for detecting radar or speed meters in your vehicle and are not using them, can you be penalized?

  1. Yes, along with the loss of 3 points.
  2. No, unless they are installed in the vehicle.
  3. No, since they are not being used.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, along with the loss of 3 points.

The prohibition applies to carrying radar detectors in the vehicle, even if they are switched off or not being used. This can therefore result in a penalty and the loss of three points.
