The spray is not visible so it is still legal.
The fanatical attentiveness on speed has produced a nation of nervous
drivers whose confidence appears to have been destroyed. Nobody wants to overtake these days and, if overtaken, most drivers react with annoyance. Skill, judgment and anticipation have gone out of the window and our roads are more dangerous as a result. And I wish for that raison d'=EAtre that I could spray everyone's license plate with a photoblocker spray http://www.photoblocker.com/ and get the whole thing as the crow flies. Everybody will drive with self-belief and there will be fewer accidents. |

How so? Even if you use the spray, that in no way interferes with radar. They can still get a good lock on your car and tell how fast your car is going. Too bad they don't know where to send the ticket. -Dave |

The spray basically masks the license plate? Is that how it works?
Anyone know the details of this kinda stuff? |

Too bad they don't know where to send the ticket. -Dave The law applies to plastic license plate covers, but I think the term is devices. If you get pulled over for something else and they notice your license plate has been tampered with, then they could ding you for that too. This may be a scam anyway--maybe it's some spray on snake-oil thing. A better and cheaper alternative is just don't get speeding tickets. |

(1) You buy the photoblocker spray. (2) You spray your license plate. (3) You are caught on camera speeding. (4) It takes about a month to process and send out your ticket. (5) You brighten up and realize the spray doesn't work. (6) You ask for your money back. (7) You realize you aren't going to get your money back. Any questions. |

Assuming the spray works . . . how would anybody (a cop or anybody else) NOTICE that the license plate had been tampered with? -Dave |

Good for defeating those devices, but won't=20 stop a policeman with a hand held radar or his car radar from clocking=20 you and pulling you over.... |

It sounds like a massive waste of money to me. I think I'll rub
vaseline all over my entire car today and take a picture of it. Maybe it will disappear. |
