    There are signs before the camera and the cameras themselves are pretty noticeable. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

    Are there cameras on the 51? I haven't seen any outside of a radar truck parked on the side once in a while.

    I for one, am glad that they are popping up everywhere. Every day i see people doing well over 80 mhp on these roads. In Germany they hide these cameras, you get the ticket in the mail and you pay it at the post office. No court and if you don't pay, next time you go get tags for car, you'll pay that ticket or no tags.

    Good thing I don't speed, if you are not doing to speed limit you have nobody to blame but yourself. Same thing with people who street race if you want to play around on the street be prepared for the consequences.

    Escort has a new radar detector that actually knows where the cameras are and warns you if you are approaching one. I think they work on the speed cameras on the highway too, but am not 100% sure.

    According to today's Arizona Repulsive the recent 20 million dollar order for additional fixed and mobile cameras is on hold. It seems the OTHER Scottsdale company that sells that service complained to the Fed's that Redflex was selling cameras that weren't Federally approved. So until DPS cleans up that mess no new fixed or mobile cameras!

    Aren't the ones in the city (i.e. Warner and Almaschool) a little more strict. Like they don't give you a 10mph safety net.

    I don't have a problem with the speed cameras on the 'loops'. I do have a problem with the D*CKS that think they have to slam on their brakes to get down to the limit. It's widely known that the ones along the 'loop', in Scottsdale (where the cameras were started), don't flash until you're running 11 mph over the posted limit. I've been able to run 10 above, with the cruise control on, and no picture taken.

    The dips that think they're doing better by slamming on their brakes for these cameras had better think about the near wrecks they cause, before they touch the brake pedal.

    The simple solution to living with these cameras is to remember that where you're going isn't going to sprout legs and move on you. You don't need to be in a flippin' hurry. That's what I see more than the dip that runs the limit in the high-speed lane. For them, get your a** over!

    All in all, if you drive like you're trying to get the ticket, you'll never get one.
