Do you think speed cameras will slow them down? Or do you think they'll just figure out how to get away with it? When my city put in speed cameras everywhere, it didn't slow me down. After the first one (which was a surprise btw- same route I drove to work every day, but after they put in the speed camera, the speed limit was reduced by 10mph mysteriously...) I researched the fuck out of the topic and found

A: they can't act on a mailed ticket unless you voluntarily respond (so I didn't) or it's delivered by a process server (which costs money, and the local government isn't going to bother when there are plenty of pigeons that don't know better)

B: they have to be able to identify the driver- as in see your face. There was a famous case of a guy wearing various zoo animal masks, and I have a couple pictures of me in a cheap Spartan mask doing 90 in a 65 that never went anywhere.

C: even if they serve you, and even if your face is plainly visible, it may still be worth a shot going to court. I did the one time one was properly served, which was another surprise one, not one of the times I was taunting them. It was another case of the speed limit being temporarily reduced, this time for construction - except the speed camera had been set up after the end of the construction zone, and I had just gotten on the highway, there was no signage indicating the construction zone or the reduced speed between the on ramp and the camera, and again it was a familiar area where I knew the limit was 65 normally... Anywho, tangent. I went to court, and I got to see which arguments worked and which didn't. It was pretty comical, one woman was trying to argue that she didn't know the speed limit had dropped, but she had been clocked at 79- the judge yelled at her "even if you thought it was 65, you still would have been going nearly 15 over! Pay the fine and get out!" Anywho, one thing I noticed was they always gave the measurements of how far the speed camera was after the speed limit sign, so that was going to be my angle- I would just ask how far that was from the on ramp- but I didn't get the chance. They got to me, and the prosecutor said he didn't have the evidence to pursue my case, so he moved for dismissal. No further explanation.

So that's just what works in my jurisdiction, it's likely other places close some of those loopholes, but introduce some of their own. And you can bet assholes like me will be better at figuring it out and will overall pay less in fines than suckers like you that just get caught by surprise once in a great while. Is that fair?
