They can't so much if you put the screen in before they get out and get to your car. But if the reason they're pulling you over, is because they saw the car lit up like a christmas tree inside, or saw the screen working, then you may need to show them that it can't work when the handbrake is down. Thats the reason why i did it. Its one less thing they can be a**hole to you about.

It is illegal to have a screen viewable by the drier when the car is in motion and it must be fitted to the handbrake switch.
