What A Red Light Camera Sees
So you're driving down the road minding your own business and you see a flash out of the corner of your eye. What was that? Lighting? Maybe you think nothing of it till a little $200 - $400 surprise shows up in the mail. Not lighting; A TICKET! For what??? "I wasn't speeding or driving like a maniac!" But you got your picture taken anyway.

| PhantomPlate.com makes a number of specialty items to help drivers avoid the dreaded red light cameras or photo radar. Most of these photographic devices are managed by third party companies and split the imposed fines from motorists with local municipalities.

These covers sell for about $35 or about a tenth of what a ticket could cost. Perhaps the perfect gift for that special someone who seems to have everything already...
