In Prince George’s, cameras to monitor speed cameras. Really.

When are people going to use fire, .22, and/or hammers in dealing with these cameras?
That is my question.

Because no one is smart enough to take out the camera watching the speed camera first ... then the speed camera.

Rudimentary photoshop skills can produce a tolerable (short-term) picture of a license plate. It isn’t that hard to discover the plat number of your local mayor or city councilmoron. It has become a rather common trick to create a fake license plate with the license number of the creep who is responsible for imposing these cameras on us and then speed past one of these cameras.
Rinse & repeat as needed.

I live in NC, and I must admit it is CREEPY that EVERY stop-light in the state of VA now has a camera affixed to it. Those cameras are to trigger the changing of the lights based on the presence or not of cars waiting to go through the intersection. It's cheaper to use cameras than to bury sensors in the pavement. I guess there are some places in VA that have red light cameras where you get a ticket if you run the light, but I've lived in VA for 10 years and have never seen one.

I’ve been lucky in that regard so far. Of course, I usually don’t do more than 5 above. Do 5 above and you should be fine.

Five above? Surely you jest, FRiend! I'm petal to the metal, now and as I have been for the last 50 years. My maiden voyage up the then-new I-95 between Washington and Baltimore I hit 105 with my Uncle George's 1949 Chrysler Windsor - had an interesting trans known as "Fan Drive" - sucker could still move at 32 years old. A damn sight better than some of the garbage coming out of Detroit now!

We rather laughed when we found out a local (Catonsville) camera was “burned” just after it was put in. I had to go to our vet near there the next few days so I drove around specifically to see. True to promise they already replaced it. They don’t waste time putting their “safety” devices in place - and they now have a camera on IT.

Actually, one of my friends got a ticket for exactly 5 over. It was the speed camera in Olney (on Georgia Avenue). I am not sure if each camera is set for different speeds over... but in this case, I saw the ticket. Her speed was exactly 5 over.
To: Teotwawki
It is all about the money. I got two and the letters both stated that the info doesn’t even go to the DMV if paid.

Hate those things. I've gotten nailed once, my wife has gotten nailed once and my daughter has gotten nailed twice. Um, you want to rephrase that? Especially about your wife and daughter...
