IT COULD be every crook’s must-have gadget — a device that can warn when a police car is nearby.

The small dashboard-mounted display alerts the driver by bleeping and lighting up when it senses police radio transmissions. It also reveals when ambulances and fire engines are near. The maker claims that it is useful for telling drivers that an emergency vehicle needs to overtake.

Eh, It's not too bad of a problem. Just have a few decoy vehicles with TETRA handhelds in them. Should make so many false positives that the system becomes useless.
