Tests have been going on for several weeks in Montpellier, France, and look set to spread across the country soon. And UK police forces, which have been watching the developments, could introduce the idea here.

Here"s a car maker that’s on a roll! It’s one of the most expensive new models built in the UK, but the Rolls-Royce Coupé has been such a hit, the entire production quota for the year has been sold in a week.
The firm has announced that 200 examples of its ÷£275,000 two-door have now been ordered, only seven days after it officially went on sale. That means no further cars will be available before 2009.
It’s great news for the British- based company, which is owned by BMW and has its HQ in Goodwood, West Sussex. Production of the newcomer is due to start in the summer. Powered by a 6.75-litre V8 engine, the model is barely changed from the 101EX concept car, and even offers striking details such as slot-shaped headlamps and a brushed alloy bonnet. Inside, there’s an LED light-filled roof headlining.
