LASER + PHOTO RADAR License plate cover
Can someone tell me if there is anything that defeats the red light
cameras or speed cameras. I am getting fed up with these stupid camera tickets that are absolutely unfair. I got one the other day for driving 4mph above the speed limit. What do they call this safety or ripping off? I need help. |

Paintball gun.... Thou shalt not kill doesn't apply to a friggin ROBOT!
You are looking at someone who semi-beat it. I found the cameras in my area were 0.1 second too short a yellow time beow the federal yellowlight guidelines. I've therefore had tickets thrown out which I never should have got to begin with. Look at your yellow duration. if it 2.9 seconds or lower, the ticket is not even valid. meanwhile, I tried that plate cover, but in my state, its illegal to obscure the plate so I got a 50.00 ticket for that which I got out of because the cop didnt show up. I then went to the spray, just to be safe, which sends back so much freakin light from the flash that the camera blinds itself. I now slam the brakes on at any sign of a yellow, and if I get ass-ended, well, then I guess I havea suit fro the guy who hits me. Another note, don't expect to use an ambulance as an excuse as to why you moved through the intersection. I've seen tickets hold in that instance, and I now don't move for ambulances. |

Or, a well-placed ought six should do it. That, or a large structural steel bumper with lots of reinforcement. Hehehe...

also, if you have GPS, you could download the locations of all the light
cameras, and run an alarm setup when you are near one as a reminder. I like the mud idea too. Those cameras are indeed highway robbery...literally... |

Just fight the ticket in court. Your local DA will probably dismiss
the charge when push comes to shove. First line of defense is to have the camera in question impounded for calibration. This will remove the income producing device temporarily at least. Since most folks just mail in the fines and never question the machine its removal will cause some consternation with the authorities. If the machine proves to be as little as .1 mph off it may be assumed to be behaving improperly. Chances are the DA would rather dismiss your one charge than have to drop several hundred.

This will remove the Now this impounding, I remember a speeding ticket case I was at, the calibration on the radar gun was some tuning fork test, they did every day. Aren't photo cops tested each day, or have an internal test that could null your request for a calibration? >income producing device temporarily at least.
