Radar guns

[cobram at juno.com]

Radar detectors are as useful as teats on a bull in many places around
the world.  In a few countries that have photo radar, they imbed a field
sensor into the asphalt, if you pass over the sensor above the speed
limit, the hidden camera is actuated.  The only way to protect yourself
is to go to a web site where the location of the cameras is listed and be
careful on those sections.  They still use the term "radar" even though
the embedded coil system has nothing to do with it, it's just a generic
term for revenue enhancement..err, I mean safety enforcement.  I've seen
the systems used in Spain, Brazil and Portugal.
