Under the CCC, laser jammers are illegal, as it meets the elements of the offence for Obstruction.
BC may not specifically have a law or section under the MVA regarding jammers, but it does not make it "legal". A lot of provincial and city bylaws do not cover the same offences as the CCC. For example, Richmond does not have a blyaw against fighting in public, but fighting in public is an offence, Cause Disturbance, under the Criminal Code. Just because Richmond does not have a bylaw stating fighting in public is illegal, does not make it legal. That is not how it works.
Unless there is a statute in place in BC that specifically states laser jammers ARE LEGAL, it doesn't make it legal because there's no Provincial statute saying they are illegal.
My question for drivers who own jammers are; How often are you deliberately driving WELL OVER the speed limit, to have to own one of these? You will rarely ever get a ticket for going 10-15 over the speed limit, unless you were in a school zone.
