The Illini State Troopers were using abandoned vehicles and hiding radar cameras in them. Radar mounted in the rear window. You go over 76, you trigger the camera looking out the front window right at your plate as you pass the car. Those dirty [*]!
So this one guy triggers a camera, state of Illinois mails him a ticket along with a picture of the back of his car and the radar readout in plain view. Since he lives out of state, he's like "PFF! I AIN'T PAYIN' THAT!".
But the guy has a sense of humor, so he mails them back a picture of the money for the ticket. I guess the troopers had a *little* sense of humor, because he next received a notice to appear in court for "Failure to Comply" along with a picture of a pair of handcuffs.
What's so great about Illinois again?
Take a close look at the comparison pictures. The after pic obviously had a longer exposure (or wider aperture, whatever), making it look brighter and washing out the view of the plate.Lumpy53 said:If you want to fight back try this http://www.outfoxphoto.com/home.html . It makes your plate too shinny to photograph. If they can't read your plate they can't send you a ticket.![]()
