750-508 THE MICHIGAN PENAL CODE (EXCERPT)
Act 328 of 1931

750.508 Equipping vehicle with radio able to receive signals on frequencies
assigned for police purposes; permit required; exceptions; misdemeanor;
penalty; radar detectors not restricted. [M.S.A. 28.776]
Sec. 508. (1) Any person who shall equip a vehicle with a radio receiving
set that will receive signals sent on frequencies assigned by the federal
communications commission of the United States of America for police
purposes, or use the same in this state unless such vehicle is used or owned
by a peace officer, or a bona fide amateur radio operator holding a
technician class, general, advanced, or extra class amateur license issued
by the federal communications commission, without first securing a permit so
to do from the director of the department of state police upon application
as he or she may prescribe, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by
imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 1 year, or by a fine of
not more than $500.00, or by both fine and imprisonment in the discretion of
the court.
(2) This section shall not be construed as restricting the use of radar
detectors.
History: 1931, Act 328, Eff. Sept. 18, 1931 ;--Am. 1939, Act 295, Eff. Sept.
29, 1939 ;--CL 1948, 750.508 ;--Am. 1957, Act 242, Eff. Sept. 27, 1957
;--Am. 1990, Act 77, Imd. Eff. May 24, 1990.
Constitutionality: This section, which prohibits equipping or using a
vehicle with a radio receiving set capable of receiving frequencies assigned
for police purposes, was enacted to facilitate law enforcement activity.
This section's restriction of persons permitted to monitor those frequencies
involves classifications which are rationally related to the statute's
objective, consistent with equal protection and due process guarantees.
People v. Gilbert, 414 Mich. 191, 324 N.W.2d 834 (1982).
Former Law: See section 5 of Act 152 of 1929, being CL 1929, � 578.
