I heard that it's illegal to have any device that interfere the police's radar gun or jamming their radar. You may have a radar detector in your car, but that's kinda in the gray area. I never have this in the car. I'm not sure how good and useful it is, but I doubt that by the time the radar alarms you, you probably won't able to slow down due to: not enough time, the reflex, and no car tailgating right behind you. Gotta be experienced on the road, try to remember all the radar hot spots. Also pay attention to some roads that you can't see ahead (cops usually hide just behind a bend or corner, and a sudden sloped down highway)

HK 's unmanned fixed cam is activated only after the car has passed it, i.e. it takes photo of rear of the car! Numerous V-1 user experiences on the 'dangerous' Tuen Mum HWY, so V-1 is very popular. Compared V-1 and Escort 8500 , Belltronic , V-1 is the most sensitive detector (for HK case) which can detect Fixed cams 'ahead' , never missed. For manned Laser gun, I guess any detector alerts will not be too helpful than if you have a fast foot on the brake pedal. Yes, it is legal to have detector, not jammer, in HK.
