Thread: Installation Laws???

Not sure if the law has actually come up to date with all this stuff yet. its basically moving pictures that aren't allowed like video. Other stuff is ok and can be found in newer up market cars as standard. About the only other thing is by law it should be impossible to show video unless the car is parked with the handbrake on which is why most screens come with a wire to go on the handbrake switch. I bypassed this but if you played video via the PC it would bypass it anyway which in theory is against the law. Like everything if you crash and they can remotely connect it to you having a display and not paying attention you could get in a heap of trouble.

Yeah, in most places the only thing that it is illegal is to have videos playing in the view of the driver....

GPS, OBD, Music information should be ok to be viewed while driving...

moving video is ok only if it's a camera feed...
