It is common knowledge radar detectors are illegal, but many people perhaps don’t realise how stiff the penalties are.
In NSW, it is a $1556 fine and nine demerit points to use a radar detector “or speed evasion device” (the wording changed because police also use laser devices to track speed), another $1556 ticket to own, buy or sell. And another $1556 if you fail to surrender the device.
That’s more than three times the average fine for carrying an unlicensed firearm. According to the Australian Defense Lawyers website, citing statistics from the Judicial Commission of NSW, the average penalty in NSW for carrying an unlicensed firearm is $400.
(维多利亚州的处罚)In Victoria, drivers caught with a radar detector are charged to appear in court and the device is seized as evidence, where the maximum fine is $2816.80 (20 penalty units at $140.84 each).
如果真是GPS带这个设备的,完全可以回国起诉这家公司。不过,不太相信会不知道。呵呵。从国内来的,都懂的。作者: 82ndq 时间: 2013-2-25 11:55
