Default photoblocker spray works

Touchy, aren't we.

1) the photo radar is for 'speeding', not red lights.

2) why assume spam ? T1-S conversations aren't spam.....Martin

No. Just intolerant of BS.

The spam mentions "around here in California".
Certainly in here Northern California, photographic traffic
enforcement is only common for red light enforcement and
not at all common for speed enforcement.

Well this isn't a T1-S conversation, it's spam attempting to
sell a questionable product.

Huh?

What's "photo radar"?

The scammer was claiming to avoid tickets issued based on being
photographed with a camera. The only times I've ever heard of
cameras used for issuing tickes it was for running red-lights
or toll-booths. I've never heard of cameras used for catching
speeders.

Photographic enforcement of speed is apparently common
in some parts of the world. Certainly not, however,
in California.

After looking around a bit, I have found references to
photo/radar setups for speed enforcement in a couple provinces
in Canada, Washington DC, and Europe (Germany in particular).

In California photo setups seem to be only for red-light
violations.

Yes, I remember them from Holland when I was even younger.

Anyway, you have to be major naive to believe the evidence
this "woman" (probably posted by the
kindergarten-dropout who runs phantasyplates.com) does *not*
present that the product does anything useful, (except for the
kindergarten dropout's bank account of course.)

I think who you call the scammer makes a whole lot better sense than
any one of you panks who think that there is only a red light and not a
speed light camera. Do your homework and you will be surprised how
many of those that they have installed nationwide now.

Please see http://www.redlightcases.com/. Also, the Sept 02 issue of
Car and Driver has a good article on how such systems work.
