N.Y. Vehicle & Traffic Law § 397-a: Radar detectors and laser detectors prohibited

§ 397-a. Radar detectors and laser detectors prohibited. 1. No radar

detector or laser detector shall be used in any motor vehicle with a

gross vehicle weight rating of more than eighteen thousand pounds or in

any commercial vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating of more than

ten thousand pounds. The presence in such vehicle of a radar detector

or laser detector connected to a power source and in an operable

condition is presumptive evidence of its use by any person operating

such vehicle. Such presumption shall be rebutted by any credible and

reliable evidence which tends to show that such radar detector or laser

detector was not in use.

2. The provisions of this section shall not be construed as

authorizing the seizure or forfeiture of a radar detector or laser

detector, unless otherwise provided by law.

3. A violation of the provisions of this section shall constitute a

traffic infraction punishable by a fine of not less than twenty-five nor

more than one hundred dollars.
