Approval Orders and
Forms for Road Traffic Law Enforcement Technology.
Basically if a piece of equipment
does not have Home office Approval they should not be using
it, as in the recent case in Scotland where the Police have
been using a system called "PolicePilot" which had not been
given approval, it was challenged in court.
Legal experts said the admission casts doubt on previous cases
in Scotland involving the device. Ken Dalling, a Stirling solicitor,
said: "This case is likely to cause a lot of people who have
accepted their convictions to give further consideration to
their position. It means that all the convictions over the past
four or five years based on this device may be unsafe."
Not all devices are listed. Its
quite hard finding out what is and what isn't. Some
of the information may be out of date, again its hard finding
out what.
