Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
A driver from another state drives through Virginia with a radar detector on a windshield mount. The detector is plugged into the power outlet but switched off. What does Virginia law say?
Correct answer: It is unlawful, even though the detector is switched off
Why
The officer can take the detector as evidence. A conviction for this violation gives no demerit points, but it is still a violation of Virginia law. It is also unlawful to sell radar detectors in Virginia.
