Scout device, all the information about the new road control system

The new scout speed device is to be considered as a moving speed camera. Unlike the real speed camera problems, these devices are not located at the edge of the road, but mounted directly on the cars of the traffic or municipal police. I’m able to detect the speed of vehiclesin both directions of travel. They detect the speed and number plate of the cars committing the offence, even at night, because they are equipped with infrared rays.

Not many people know it and are informed about its functioning or effectiveness. But there are those who question both the “legality” and the functioning. For example, some users argue about the legality of the device because it is not reported. Speed ​​cameras, by law, must be reported to be legal, scouts don’t.

To give the right explanations is the Ministry of Infrastructure, which declares that the local police patrols are moving stations, therefore the device cannot and must not be reported and is always in order. The scout issues fines ranging from a minimum of 40 euros to a maximum of 3,000 euros, noting driving with an expired MOT, with expired insurance, parking in the presence of a ban and excess speed.
