I've looked for this topic, but I can't seem to find it, so sorry if it's already been asked.....on ebay, they sell these plastic license plate covers that are supposed to make your license plate invisible from different angles. I guess there's a reflective thing in them. In my city, they have put up "photo enforced traffic lights" and they give you a $350 ticket if you don't cross the intersection by the time the light turns red. Not cool at all.... so, I'm wonderin if any of you have tried these "Anti-photo" license plate thingies. Do you think they really work? When I was in monterey, I drove past this car that I think had one and from a side view, I really couldn't see his #'s -- they were all blurred (yah,i had my glasses on too!) You think police would mess with ya for it? I dunno... what'cha think?:
Well, the best way to avoid tickets for red lights is to just not run them BUT as for the covers, if a cop really wanted to be a pest those covers would be a good excuse to pull you over since technically you are not supposed to cover your plate with anything in california. However I did see something on the news the other day about some people who invented some clear spray that makes your plate not show up in pictures. The name escapes me but a web search should come up with something
actually, i've researched these and my cousin has one on his camaro. to the human eye, its just a clear cover, but when a picture is taken, it is "guaranteed" to be blurred. they havent put these cameras in my area yet, but when they do, i'll def have one!
really? so maybe i'll get it....about not running the red lights....it's not that i run red lights, but i heard that if you are even in the intersection when the light turns red, you will be ticketed. That totally sux cuz what if you're behind sum fool who is turnin slow and when you crossed the intersection, it was green, but by the time you reach the other side, it's red. That always happens. But then someone also told me the cameras only go off if you completely run a red light. Then, I guess that would be legit, but not if the light was green when you went (u know how sum lights turn from green 2 yellow 2 red real fast). It really sux cuz now where the "photo enforced" traffic lights are, people are stopping on green lights cuz they don't wanna get caught in the yellow. Talk about congestion!
well you are relatively close are you coming to the meet on the 26th it's in the regional section of the forum in the southwest you grab some peeps and cruise down.

look around for a spray....
On a news show here in Colorado... they did an report on if it works or not...
And I can't remember the name of it, but it's this spray, you spray on the actual license plate, and it's like a super gloss,
because of the reflective stuff it's made out of, the gloss from different angles end's up glaring at you... so you can't read it.
There's a Canadian Company that always advertises in the back of Car & Driver for plate covers that are designed to avoid photo radar, check them out maybe.
All covers for plates are illegal here in Maryland. Sometimes the lights do turn faster to red. Its not just your imagination. Keep the speed up between the lights.
BUT as for the covers, if a cop really wanted to be a pest those covers would be a good excuse to pull you over since technically you are not supposed to cover your plate with anything in california.
