The law strictly prohibits the possession, installation or use in traffic on public roads of devices that disturb the normal operation of speed measuring devices, also called ANTI-RADAR.
Instead, devices for detecting radar equipment, also called RADAR DETECTOR are allowed by law. Radar detectors only warn the driver about the existence of a RADAR type device in the area, without disturbing its proper functioning, disturbance which aims at preventing the measurement of the speed of movement of the respective speed measuring vehicle.
It must be noted that road legislation allows the use of radar detectors, but prohibits the use of anti-radars
Road legislation does NOT prohibit equipping motor vehicles with navigation systems.
Road legislation allows motor vehicles to be equipped with sound anti-theft systems. But it must be known that regulations impose certain conditions, such as the duration of the sound signal not exceeding more than one consecutive minute. Failure to comply with these regulations is considered a contravention and is sanctioned with the fine provided in the fourth class of sanctions.
