Got a letter in the mail the other day....turns out I was doing about 11 over the speed limit in our nation's capital. I guess they use those horizontal lines on the side of the road to tag how fast your car is going. (Of course I did not know that at the time). On the bright side, it was only $50, and did not go on my record, which is the case for all camera tickets in DC, to my knowledge.

Get you some of this and put it on your license plate and tell the photo cop to go screw itself!

If they must resort to clandestine and furtive attempts to catch you, then I would think you have the right to defend yourself from their actions!


Hope this helps.

My wife has been busted by the DC cameras a couple times. No points, no nothing, and no real way to fight it, just a cash cow for your local protect-and-serve. Your tax dollars hard at work

does that photo spray on your plate really work? I could see it working in the night, but do they even use a flash in the day?

Too bad they can't come up with something to let you paint your plate so it reads F*** YOU when they take your picture!

maybe you can make a stencil and then spray the paint over it. Then it will only flash out the letters.

Yes! The flash activates whether it is day or night; at least the ones on the red-light cameras in Richardson and Garland do.

BTW, I don't agree with red light runners since I got sideswiped by one in Garland at an intersection just above the one where they have the redlight cameras.

However, using it to monitor speed??? Radar is bad enough with out this BS!

I think there is some type of spray you can buy that goes on your license plate so when they take the picture it can't be read.

They only have red light camera's down here in Florida (that I know of), so I think that I should be okay.

I really think that spray looks like a great idea.
