[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]those of you who are naive or stupid enough to say quaint things like "don't speed = no ticket" are utterly clueless about the vagaries of radar, calibration, etc.

Ever see the test in which radar clocked a stationary tree going faster than the speed limit?

I didn't think so .... [/quote]

Oh please, that was decades ago and the speed cameras are operating from a fixed position aimed down at one spot on the road.  You are dreaming if you think those speed cameras are catching a tree blowing in the wind.[/quote]

the physics principles etc. behind those false readings are just as applicable today, IIRC those readings were also fixed readings, not moving.

the point is that the technology is still highly susceptible to error, first; and second, these cameras are pure income generators and do nothing to get bad drivers off the road at the time of the violation (since no one is stopped), nor will they result in license supensions.

they're simply disguised tax collectors ... [/quote]
