    the winning mod to this would be to hook up one of those sensors that you see on pro photographer strobes that let all the big strobes slave to the flash on the camera. when the device detects the flash of the speed camera, black out.

    of course, that would defeat the whole safety purpose of speed cameras, and that would be wrong, so just forget i said anything. #speedcameras

    Wasn't there a story about a guy who wears a Monkey Mask while driving, and got out of 45 moving violations by saying it cant be proven that he was driving when the violations took place?

    Wouldn't that just be cheaper, and less illegal, than this? #speedcameras

    Not particularly useful for those looking to block cops from looking up their license plate or blocking traffic cameras. Needs to be automatic. #speedcameras

    To bad it just blacks it out. How much for one that makes it look like a totally different plate? Or better yet, replaces it with the Laughing Man logo? #speedcameras

    Don't get me started on how it is impossible to face a camera as an accuser...or how, for red-light cameras, yellows are made intentionally short, even though it's always refuted by those who do it.

    Minor note: if you're trying to pull this kind of crap, having (really stupid looking) distinctive decals on the side and front of your car is incredibly dumb. He might've gotten away with it if he could claim that could be anyone's white WRX.

    A grey-with-a-touch-of-brown 2006 WRX wagon would probably be the best vehicle for speeding all over town without being noticed. Not that I'd know or anything.

    So this guy is intentionally impairing his peripheral vision with a monkey mask and speeding relentlessly? Genius.
