Speed Cameras? I've heard of ones that take ur picture when you run a red light but not speeding ones.

Melt · #4 07-01-2002, 01:10 AM

arent they legally required to post signs warning you about the cameras. They have to do that here in the states (california at least) for the red light ones.

MKS · #5 07-01-2002, 12:12 PM

Yeah they do have to put signs up ..... but at the speed i was gonig i might have missed it lol ..

I just hope that they put it there the day after

Anyway FourthGenHatch what country u from ... i really wanna go there no speed cameras oh that is real nice

Over here in the UK they r talking about changing the law so they dont have to put signs up and so they can hide the cameras

i really hope that dont happen ..

I don't remember where it was that this happened, but it's hella funny.

There was a guy that was caught speeding by a camera. The police sent him a ticket with a picture of his car from the camera, asking him to pay the fine. So, they guy sent the ticket back to the cops with a picture of some money. Then, the cops sent him a letter with a picture of some hand-cuffs. He paid the fine shortly thereafter.

I think i have heard that somewhere. Regardless, its pretty funny. :hehehe:

I'm from America. I have never heard of a speed camera. We have red light cameras but no speed camera. I would just wipe shit all over my plate and if it takes a picture it would be hard as shit to see. And if you get pulled over just be like, oopps my cars just dirty, what the hell are they gonna do to you.

ci5ic · #9 07-01-2002, 09:33 PM

True, you could do that. I know they've got speed cams too... There was a guy here in town (Spokane, WA) who had a 300ZX. He took it in to some shop to have some work done. They had the car for about a week. When he got it back, it had 1000 extra miles on it, and a couple days later, he recieved a picture of his car doing 100+ MPH over the Tacoma Narrows bridge (which is about 300 miles away). Anyways, he took the shop to court and won a big settlement.

What a bunch of bitches. I wouldnt take my car to that shop again. I just got jacked by a shop. I took my car into the shop to have some a/c work done and they say its gonna be $600 to replace all the hoses, and there is no remaining R12 in the system. I ended up paying $60 for that. The hoses are around $100 to replace. So how the hell is the extra $500 justified?!?!? Tell you what, I am going to bert williamson tommorow (local parts store) and getting the R134A conversion kit, the hoses I need, and a helms manual. I should be able to do the shit myself for a lot cheaper than that.

I guess u could just cover the plates but ....... the cops really hate that and will pull u over and check out every detail of the car

... i know u can mess up the speed cameras by have a few lazer beems over the number plate but it is very very illegal to do that lol

i got two weeks wait to find out if im busted ... if i dont here after two weeks i guessill be ok

Melt · #12 07-04-2002, 11:15 PM

I got an idea, is there any way to make the lic plate light on the back (the one that goes on when you have your lights on) so bright that it would fuck up the speed cam, or do something else with that little light.

FourthGenHatch · #13 07-04-2002, 11:43 PM

I know there were License Plate covers that looked like plastic but would reflect like real well and make license plates show up pure white in photos.

toontowncivic · #14 07-05-2002, 12:35 AM

okay well I used to live in Edmonton Alberta and we had photo radar but they were on unmarked vehicles parked on the side of the road. I was friends with this guy and his dad was a cop ... well kind of a crooked cop and he told me that if you drive 180 kph (don't know what that is in miles) the camera wil not have time to react to the radar reading that tells it to take the picture!! I don't know if it will work with the speed cameras you are talking about but I am curious to find out so if anyone has the balls to try it let me know how it turns out!! LOL

toontowncivic · #15 07-05-2002, 12:37 AM

oh I almost forgot...I heard that if you spray hairspray on your plate it creates a shiny film that will reflect the flash from the camera!! worth a try!?
