I have been living in Calgary my entire life and I have seen a huge increase in photo radar enforcement on the streets. Some of the new SUV's and trucks don't have the lights and the flash on the top of the roof anymore, they are on the front of the vehicle where is is not as noticeable.

On one of my regular drives into the Beltline off Bow Trail where you take 10th Ave ,turn right and than left onto 12th Avenue the speed limit is 30 km/h with a 50 km/h sign about 50 meters up. There is literally a photo radar vehicle there every single day and every time I drive by now. It's a tricky spot because your in between speed zones.

I follow the rules for the most part but with the amount of enforcement out there, it seems the city is very hungry for revenue.
