The short answer
Yes — the OOONO CO-DRIVER NO2 is legal to use in Austria. Austrian road traffic law §98a KFG (Kraftfahrgesetz) explicitly permits devices that warn drivers of fixed camera locations and other points of interest. The CO-DRIVER operates exactly within this framework.
This puts Austria in a different category from neighbouring Switzerland, where all speed camera warning devices are illegal and subject to confiscation.
What does Austrian law actually say?
Austrian law permits the use of POI (Point of Interest) warning systems while driving. These are devices that alert drivers to known fixed camera locations. The OOONO CO-DRIVER NO2 functions as a POI warner combined with a community-based hazard alert system — both functions are permitted under Austrian law.
Unlike Germany, where the legal situation requires the driver to take personal responsibility under StVO §23, Austria has a clearer legal framework that explicitly allows these devices. OOONO sells the CO-DRIVER on Amazon.de, which ships freely to Austria.

Does Austria have a parking disc requirement?
Austria does not have a national blue parking disc requirement the way Germany does. In Germany, the P-DISC NO3 is essential for blue zone parking — in Austria, you generally pay for parking via ticket machines or apps. The OOONO P-DISC NO3 is therefore not needed for most Austrian drivers, though individual municipalities may have local zone rules.
What about Switzerland — right next door?
If you're driving through Switzerland from Austria, be aware that Switzerland has completely different rules. All POI warning devices and speed camera warners are illegal in Switzerland, subject to confiscation and a fine. Turn off or remove the CO-DRIVER before entering Switzerland.
