    The only problem with that is the cops will sit there by every camera and wait for it to happen again. Plus the whole discharge of a firearm within city limits, damaging government property, yada yada yada...

    Now a paintball gun solves all of those problems. Cover those screens with all the green, red, orange paint you could ever want. Its basically soap so it washes off but it ruins a lot of pictures.

    there actually was something about this were some kids were cought takinging spray paint and paining over these. i want to do the james bond this and take a photo of the street and put it infront of the camera and see how long it take them to figure out that the traffic hasnt been moving.

    Two words--Cruise Control. Doesn't help much if you don't know what the sensors are set at, however :(

    For those of you that have in-car navigation, a buddy of mine has made the habit of setting each camera location that he passes as a "point of interest" in the nav system, it notifies him when he is 1/4 mile away from one.

    Additionally, once you know where the cameras are, as long as you can slow down before the sensor strips in each lane (black, look like large chamfered squares), you won't set off the camera.

    Yea, unfortunately all you can do is stay as far to the left as possable, and watch your seperation distances. They allways pick it back up, to the speed they were at, before approaching the cameras. Nobody likes to see a Mustang that has just been in an accident.

    Better get used to it! They will be at every major intersection and every five miles on the freeways by 2015. If you think gunning it through an intersection to beat the red light is a good idea, think again. You will be cited for speeding and running a red light, that's right, speed traps at intersections. When you GET a ticket and go to traffic school they will inform you of all our new traffic laws and bullshit.
