No. Switzerland prohibits the use, sale, or possession of laser jammers under the Ordinance on Road Traffic Equipment (VRV) and Federal Act on Road Traffic (SVG). These devices interfere with police speed enforcement, violating federal safety regulations. Enforcement includes fines up to CHF 10,000 and vehicle confiscation. The Federal Roads Office (FEDRO) and cantonal police actively monitor compliance, with 2026 amendments tightening penalties for electronic interference devices.
