Leave it to teens to come up with a great idea...............
"This game is very disturbing," the parent said. "Especially since unsuspecting parents will also be victimized through receipt of unwarranted photo speed tickets.Gee, ya think?!? Maybe you should have thought of that before you allowed your government to install these cameras!

These pranksters are good, I mean, look at the level of detail to find similar cars to pull this off is great. I certainly hope that this could be the beginning of the end for those revenue generators.

Obviously these cops have never raised a teenager. If there’s a rule, they will find a way to either break it or use it to their advantage.
It’s a pretty clever prank, actually.

The Montgomery County Police said they have not seen or heard of this prank occurring but said they will keep an eye out for people committing the crime. Hey Sparky, pull the cameras and have the cops keep an eye out for speeders instead. It will work a lot better.

That’s hilarious!
I would’ve done the same thing if I were a teenager.
Alas, I haven’t been a teenager since...
ugh

Awesome. These teens are not only exacting their revenge, but they are showing the stupidity of these government nanny cams at the same time. Brilliant and they probably don’t even get it.

OK, I’m laughing here (although I shouldn’t be.)
Very clever.

"The practice of sending speeding tickets to faceless recipients without any type of verification is unwarranted and an exploitation of our rights." Oh, blah, blah, blah. You probably don't keep score at soccer games, either. "Exploitation of our rights" my ass...

So you support the use of speed cameras? I take it you have the constitution as a urinal liner, too, huh?

"Exploitation of our rights" my ass.Speeding and red light cams are the epitome of rights exploitation. The last time I looked, as a citizen of these United States one is innocent until proven guilty. These cameras have been shown time and time again to be a usurpation of the right to Due Process.

I would have an LCD screen the exact shape of a license plate holder with a program of different license plate numbers plus the original one, it can be configured to look precisely like a legal license plate with the right shading, at a command prompt like going through a red light it changes momentarily.
I know it would not arouse suspicion on a normal basis even at 5 feet away, it can be done.
I would dearly love to build this and sell it, call it patriotic dissent when the other plates belong to left wing liberals.

I would rather hope they would use the plates off the chief of police, mayor, and other local officials.
