Do you think apps like waze should also be illegal? What possible reason would you want location of speed trap except to speed with impunity? Moreover whether it "benefits criminals" is irrelevant here, because the current legal standard is imminent lawless action[1]. Otherwise that would be license to ban all manner of materials, from anarchists cookbook to DRM circumvention tools.

- CjHuber 1y agoSo how do you explain that the government of France for example publishes the exact location of all speed cameras online?
- FireBeyond 1y agoHow do you explain that it is illegal in Virginia to advise someone of the location of a speed camera?
- CjHuber 1y agoMy point was, if speed camera warnings are only for people wanting to break the law how would you explain this site to exist. https://radars.securite-routiere.gouv.fr/#/ https://radars.securite-routiere.gouv.fr/#/ sos it means there has to be at least one other reasons for warning people of speed cameras which is not breaking the law, or do you think the French authorities want you to help break the law there? I don't know which one but there has to be one right? As for the US I'd say with a cynical pragmatism it's because they are privatized afaik and thus have a big lobby lol
- akk0 1y agoIt's illegal to have navigation in your vehicle tell you there's a camera coming up in France, enforced and punished by high fines (I moved here from NL which has no such law).
- d1sxeyes 1y agoTrue but they’re all signposted far enough in advance for you to slow to the right speed.
