AHEAD of a busy summer on the roads traffic police in Spain have announced steep fines for anyone caught using radar detectors or inhibitors in their vehicles.
The Guardia Civil is reminding drivers that if a vehicle is stopped carrying a radar detector the driver will be slapped with an automatic €200 fine and get three points on their driving licence.
And if a driver is found to be carrying a radar inhibitor they will face a hefty €6,000 fine and get six points on their licence.
The police have also announced that the margin of error for all their radar speed detectors is now a standard 5%, whether they are installed in patrol cars or roadside devices.
