especially knowing how the French government has been tracking down (and collecting) on road rules infractions for the past 7 years... it wouldn't surprise me.

Still up until today, i never was sure that French police would have the capabilities, ... Thanks for the link Svache!

I will try to be a law abiding citizen... now that i am well above that maturity age of 30 ...
Sadly enough they have this technology for at least 6-7 years now. Like you, I was very skeptical they would have this but it was in the news quite a few times, and also on those tv shows, that they actually had this technology. Made me get rid of my own detector.

Technically it's not such a weird technology. In order to detect a radar, it needs to send out a signal, and the detector-detector simply has to catch that signal. Kind of like how sonar works, I imagine
