they actually did me for dangerous driving,because it was on when i went through a amber traffic light, even when its all on video,nothing wrong with my driving,even one of the coppers said this, the other one was a tosser, and unlucky for me the judge was havin a bad day and hit me with 120 hrs community service,£350 fine and loss of licence for 12 months,but ive learnt my lesson, trust me!

They must be allowed to be on for some reasons.
Gps, screen headunits that use the display for radio, cd, mp3 info etc.
But just switch it off if they are going to come near your car

They are meant to be connected to a sensor that turns it off automatically when the handbrake is taken off. I think thats the case anyway

 Bloody hell.
But paedophiles can get jobs as P.E. teachers and get away with whatever they choose to do.
I'd have said that any one of those punishments was exceptionally excessive, but to get all three is bloody ridiculous.
