  detector or laser detector shall be used in any  motor  vehicle  with  a
  gross  vehicle weight rating of more than eighteen thousand pounds or in
  any commercial vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating of  more  than
  ten  thousand pounds.   The presence in such vehicle of a radar detector

  such vehicle.  Such presumption shall be rebutted by  any  credible  and
  reliable  evidence which tends to show that such radar detector or laser
  detector was not in use.
    2.  The  provisions  of  this  section  shall  not  be  construed   as
  authorizing  the  seizure  or  forfeiture  of  a radar detector or laser
  detector, unless otherwise provided by law.
    3. A violation of the provisions of this section  shall  constitute  a
  traffic infraction punishable by a fine of not less than twenty-five nor
