    Are the speed/ red light cameras hidden where you are.

    Our red light cameras are usually at intersections and people tend to know about them because they are always trying to vandalise them.

      Yes/no. I’ve seen every permutation over the years though. Some in the median or on the sidewalk with no warning signage, some with. Some just up a pole somewhere out-of-sight with no warning signage. Some big-ol trailer contraptions complete with police/county seals on the front. I’ve even seen some that were temporary tripods set up in front of unmarked cars on the shoulder, for some mobile overnight shenanigans.

      I can’t say they’re all 100% bad. Just maybe some of the sneakier implementations run afoul of my thesis above.

      vandalise

      I don’t condone that, but that’s kind of convenient!
