Speed Camaras are detected and defeated by a good photo blocker, but only the SCD-2 Speed Camera Jammer can detect the speed cameras and prevent the digital image of your license plates from a photo radar camera. A speed trap camera is typically installed along the highway or on bridges for one purpose. Speed cameras and photo radar speed traps are designed to photograph your license plate and to get as many speeding violations as possible. This is done by photographing the vehicle license plate and mail speeding ticket to as many people as possible. In many cases it is an automatic process and no police officers are involved.
Photo Radar Traps Generate Millions For Local Governments. But our photo blocker can protect your front and rear license plates from those speed cameras. The photo speed camera manufacturers, such as Gatso, Multanova, Truvelo are frequently contracted by the police to install the cameras where the traffic patterns are always fast, and let the money roll in. Free money to the local government and all they have to do is photograph your license plate as you drive. A well located photo speed trap generates in excess of one million dollars a year in high traffic areas of cities. Amazing isn’t it? Here is some more interesting information.
Everyone is Using Them! Washington DC recently had a high number of photo systems installed. But now Phoenix, Arizona is first in the USA for photo trap enforcement. Nearly every major city uses photo speed traps in the USA. All major international cities, such as Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand, Paris, Leon, Munich, Stuttgart, London, Glasgow, Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, British Columbia, Madrid use photo traps. France, Hong Kong and the UK have fallen in love with this method of income. In the USA the states of Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Ohio, Massachusetts, Florida and New Jersey love Photo Radar. In the USA, the cameras are frequently installed by the camera manufacturer. The tickets generated are frequently mailed to the offender by the camera manufacturer. And the greater portion of the ticket money generated, often goes to the camera manufacturer.
In most cases the speed trap is controlled by a radar gun. Sometimes it is a laser based system, but the technical approach is essentially the same. It may be an X band, K band, Ku band or Ka band radar gun.
Photo radar is aimed across the road, typically at 25 degrees, and as you enter into the radar beam, it calculates your speed at that angle, and determines if you are driving above a certain speed set point. In some cases the photo is from the rear, which means that you actually pass the physical camera, then enter the radar beam as you drive by, and the camera takes a photo from the rear. If our photo blocker is installed on the license plates, it would detect the attempt ti image your plates and prevent the images, while not interfering with the radar gun or speed camera.
The rear photo trap (see A image to the left) is the most difficult to detect with a radar detector, since the photo trap faces the back of your car as you drive by the camera. The radar detector is designed to detect radar coming towards the detector, but a Photo Trap configured to detect the back of your car as you drive through the trap, makes it nearly impossible to detect the radar in time to slow down. Even a superb radar detector can not provide enough warning in situation A. That is where a Photo Defender will help the driver, since the Photo Radar Jammer will detect the camera and prevent the photo of your plate registration. If the speed trap aims radar at your vehicle as you approach the radar trap (see B image to the left), a good radar detector would provide 500-1000 feet advance warning of the trap as you are driving towards it. Sometimes the speed trip point is only 2-3 mph/kph above the speed limit. This is a money maker for the local government, since nearly everybody will be a little over the speed limit from time to time. Other times the set point is a more reasonable 7-10 mph/kph above the speed limit. If all photo traps were installed in the B configuration, a radar detector would be sufficient. But you never know what will be encountered, front or rear photo traps; so a Photo Detector and jammer is a good solution.
Once the trip point has been reached, the radar sends a signal to the camera as to when to flash, such that the registration plate (and often the driver’s face) is right in the middle of the photo image.
PROTECT YOURSELF with Our Photo blocker, a speed camera detector and speed camera jammer! It does not matter how fast you are driving, as the radar gun or laser gun tells the camera when to flash based on your speed. They got you!!...Unless you have our SCD-2 Photo blocker.
The SCD-2 photo defense is designed to detect the flash and instantly over expose your license plate with white light. Even if the photo trap flashes twice in microseconds, we can direct a brilliant light across the license plate twice, causing the camera to over expose the image. No image, no photo, no Ticket in the Mail.
The new photo traps use digital imaging and infrared imaging, which can not be defeated by products such as Photo Spray, (comes in a variety of names), and license plate photo radar covers.
The speed camera detector does not cover the license plate, does not interfere with the police if they wish to look at your license plate, but our photo blocker will instantly prevent a photograph of your license plate, when a photo speed camera attempts to get your plate registration. No photo ticket in the mail!
Speed trap cameras are set up to take pictures from the front of your vehicle, or as shown in the B image, the photo speed camera can photograph from the rear of the vehicle. Most front photo speed traps are very difficult to detect by a radar detector, and the rear photograph is next to impossible to detect, except by the SCD-2 photo blocker.
