Legal Requirements
Windscreen Mounted / Illegal Car Cams - Road Traffic Act 1988
Red zone = a 29cm wide band centered on the steering column and bounded top
and bottom by the wiper swept area.
Please be aware, if you use a suction mounted car camera in the UK, if the device
(camera and / or cradle and / or suction cup) intrudes more than 4cm into the
secondary (pink) wiper clearance zone, or intrudes more than 1cm into the primary
(red) wiper clearance zone of the windscreen, you are committing a serious traffic
offence (dangerous driving) under the UK Road Traffic Act 1988, and your vehicle
is not roadworthy (it would fail an MOT).
Also / in addition, if you use a car camera with an LCD screen, if the screen is on
for any of the time while you are driving and you, the driver, can view that screen,
you are also committing a serious traffic offence.
The driver must not operate or adjust a car camera unless the vehicle is parked
safely other wise (the same as using a mobile phone) you are also committing a
serious traffic offence as car cameras are not classed as a driving aid.
