Speed camera warning systems are a device used in cars which alerts the driver when approaching a speed camera. These devices can help avoid speeding fines and prevent that accumulation of points on a driving licence. These warning systems are completely legal and help drivers drive more safely across Britain's roads.
These speed camera detectors use GPS to calculate your position according to other speed cameras. In addition, some also are able to detect police radar speed guns at the side of the road which may not be visible around a bend.
One popular brand is "snooper", which offers a wide range of speed camera detectors with numerous different functions.
