ive just bought an in-car dvd player and 7inch tft. Can anyone tell me the legalities of this?

Dont know the legalaties of it, but how come you did'nt choose the 28" screen one?? with surround sound?? LOL

if you bought it in a pub, it's proberly illegal lol

 

as far as im aware, its not legal to be able to see the screen from outside the car, and should not be visable to the driver when in motion.

thought it was a bit to heavy, and might distract me from driving (not good in the snow) any1 know how long it takes to become subscribed. sent the cheque off last week

so where am i gonna put it then, haha not much point if i cant see it. im the only person ever in the car

Normally quite quick, but you have to keep posting "Anybody recieved my cheque yet" posts. ;)

so who actually recieves the cheque then?

It's Against The Law To Have A Dvd Playing While Driving If It's An In Dash Or On Dash Screen,just Had One Fitted To Mine.

"should not be visable to the driver when in motion" So you can put it where ever you want but it must be turned off while driving "unless Top Gear" is on. LOL ;) :rofl:

sat in on sunday nite to watch it with a curry, only to find the snooker was on instead. cant ever remember there being much bout the 300 on there, apart from when it raced the 350

you can have a screen in the front switched on if it is for navigation or as a reversing aid(camera). watching a dvd or anything else is illegal.

you are legally obligated to have the front screen not in view of the driver at any point... to reduce destraction. if any are fitted in the front you have to have it wired to the hand break so you are not able to drive whilst its on.

you are legally allowed to have them in the rear of the car but if too bright (and again loop hole) you can be done for destraction because of reflection in the rear mirror.

I never got done for that.... and mine was always on...
