Speed Camera

Guys, found a site which is related with the speed camera in arizona.Speed cameras are designed to be a visual deterrent as much as they are designed to catch you speeding and rob you of your hard earned cash, now its seems that a retired police officer from the UK has proven that they can work well as a visual deterrent.After Arizona officials installed speed cameras on several sections of the state's highways, motorists revolted. Some challenged the tickets, others didn't even show up at all to contest them. One man resorted to wearing a monkey mask while he sped by the cameras so he could argue that the court couldn't prove it was him. Turns out the speed cameras aren't bringing in enough money. Initial estimates said they might generate as much as $90M, but the actual haul has been closer to $19M. Nothing like a lack of funds to make politicians lose interest.
