Maybe they feel drivers should be driving, not the electronics?  Maybe they have had too many incidents?  Maybe the greenies moan about the extra consumption for the sake of laziness?  Who knows, but it is...

Well just exactly how would the authorities know you have your GPS set for cameras etc :-?
If they pull you over for a ramdom check or you do something silly, then i think you'd be fine.
Certainly wouldn't turn mine off :)
