DUTCH HIDE SNEAKY M'WAY CAMERAS
Armco-mounted devices lurk for the unwary





We hear through the Porsche Club Osnabrück Weser-Ems (see link below) that the motorways in the Netherlands are now stuffed with cameras.

Take a look at these pics and you'll see that the cameras, built into the roadside Armco, would be all but invisible in normal driving.

According to sources, the Dutch authorities are using a new types of camera that are -- allegedly -- capable of checking not just speed using radar and infra-red, but also distance to other vehicles, under- and overtaking.

These are built into the Armco and are almost invisible (see photos).

The Porsche club has sent us a long list of camera locations but it's a bit mangled so rather than post incorrect information, we'll run it up in this story if we manage to get hold of a cleaner version.

This improves public safety how? I can see the revenue side.

"According to the camera you were driving quite fast last month. We want you to slow down before you get in an accident"

More cameras, fewer cops. Less safety, more fines. Good job.
