Default Photo radar is garbage!!!

This may be a fata, since the story is apparently from September 2005... but just incase..

An example of an anti-countermeasure that blends these two methods (automation and camouflage) is displayed above, in pictures of photo radar units installed in roadside "wheelie bins" that appear to be ordinary trash cans or recycle bins. We haven't found any evidence that the units pictured here are actually in use in Calgary or Edmonton (or other Alberta cities), but ones very much like them have been used in places such as South Australia and Germany, generally in areas where police manpower is insufficient to devote officers to traffic duty or where it is considered dangerous to locate a car-mounted radar unit.
