Common questions
Questions before you buy
Are radar detectors legal in Quebec?
Quebec's Highway Safety Code prohibits driving a road vehicle containing a radar warning device on a public road. Review sections 333 and 334 in the official code for the statutory wording and enforcement provisions.
Can police confiscate a radar detector in Quebec?
Section 334 authorizes a peace officer with reasonable grounds to believe a vehicle contains a radar warning device to stop and inspect it, and to confiscate a device found in the vehicle.
Does the Quebec restriction apply to a detector switched off?
The code describes a vehicle containing a radar warning device; it does not make the rule depend on the device being switched on. Consult the current statute or qualified legal advice about a specific situation.
Can I use a radar detector in Quebec if I bought it elsewhere?
Buying a device elsewhere does not change Quebec's road-use restriction. Check the provincial code before carrying or using one in a vehicle on public roads.
