I know the proposed legislation was published on another thread, but this is Pocket GPS World's take on it:
The announcement last week of new French legislation that will ban speed camera warning devices has been met with anger by motorists.
French Government proposals will outlaw the sale and use of speed camera warning devices. Using a warning device will cost a driver €1,500 in fines with six penalty points whilst selling a device would result in a €30,000 fine and the possibility of two years in prison.
The Government also announced that warning signs would be removed as part of their response to a 13% increase in road fatalities in Q1 of 2011.
I rather guess that means if your Satnav device has speed camera locations preloaded you could run foul of the new law.
