GPS Detectors wouldn't be banned as they provide information that is freely available to the public anyway, its the radar detectors that would be banned

They only work when ur rite up 2the camera, from my experience. you'd have 2be blind not 2see a camera neway, so i dont think it would be worth it imo.

Thats the radar/laser detectors that warn you when you're really close to the camera. The GPS units can warn you from quite a distance.

Depends on the model. The Talex warns you from 500 yards away.
