MORE than 500 new speed cameras are to be installed on roads throughout France next year.

The 2010 budget, which was unveiled yesterday, includes provision for 530 extra radars.

Transport Minister Dominique Bussereau said they would mostly be fixed on traffic lights in town centres and on railway level crossings.

The government will unveil heightened measures to improve road safety in the coming months, ahead of the peak Christmas travel period.

Some 414 people were killed on French roads in August, up 5.6% on the same month last year – a trend that Bussereau said must not be allowed to continue.

Radar detectors are illegal in France. The mere existence of a radar detector in a vehicle, even if switched off or packed in luggage, attracts a fine of up to €3000 and confiscation of the device, potentially also of the vehicle, and in some cases a prison sentence.

Reference:

-French road code, L413-2: the sale or importation of radar detectors is illegal and punishable by a 3000€ fine and possibly imprisonment

-French road code, Article R413-15: the use of radar detectors is illegal, and punishable by a fine of the fifth class of contraventions

-Penal code, L131-13: as of July 2009, the fifth class of contraventions is punished by a fine of €1500, which may be doubled in case of repeat offenses
