This was announced by the Government this morning....
"Speed camera detectors are to be banned in a surprise move announced by ministers today.
The devices, which alert drivers when they approach speed traps, will become illegal within a year under tough measures in the new Road Safety Bill.
Ministers will continue to allow GPS satellite devices that inform drivers where roadside cameras are positioned. But devices that jam speed cameras by sending out radar signals will be ruled illegal. So will those that detect radar or laser beams emitted by cameras to gauge speed. These also tell motorists whether a roadside camera is live or a dummy.
Other measures in the Bill include:
A clampdown on speeding, with those who drive 32mph or more in a 20mph zone receiving a £100 fine and six points on their licence."
Oh good.......
