Dash cams .. Didn't know this ?
Drivers are being warned that using a dash cam in some European countries such as Austria and Portugal could lead to huge fines.

If you use them in France, make sure you disable the speed warnings. If you are stopped, and they look into your settings, as they are able to do, and speed settings are enabled, you will lose the camera, and be fined. You have been warned. Having said that, I have been going to France for over 30 years, and never been stopped. (That’s put the cat amongst the pigeons ).

Your Navi GPS stands in the car that is your private property
Your Navi GPS stands in the car that is your private property... therefore police isn't allowed to look into phone or GPS contents, unless special justice requirement...
And also... - speedcameras are forbidden since approx 2012, but being soon turned into safetycameras detectors, with enlarged hazardous areas ("zones de danger" starting earlier than a radar advice and finishing later too), fully legalized... whenever you did the available software update!!! So, Navi voices telling you yesterday about a "radar" now says "attention, zone de danger"... vs my Wikango 600, being but a detector, also bought for my RHD MGTF to show my driving speed in KM/H (digital numbers helping better than the english little characters below the miles ones in my dash).

So basically, most holiday photos people take are illegal? So why aren't holidaymakers being stopped and having their devices searched? Doesn't make sense to me, why discriminate against drivers using a device that actually helps road safety, individuals and the police, yet if I were to walk on a beach in these countries my face would appear on goodness knows how many Facebook albums without my permission and without the culprit facing any charges.
