Question What do you think ? Spray Anti Camera

Hey guys hows going ?

I have a friend that just bought that staff, its kind of spray that you put on the licence plate, and he is telling me that with that you can be flashed but often there would not be a letter from the transport officials, hmmm ticket

there is a link :

www.Phantomplate.com

So please let me know what you think, because it look really convincing for $29.

Thanks !

it's dodgy as all hell, and not as "easy" to get away as what it looks. There's people who have been caught, and they won't be the last. there was an article on a current affair not long ago.

why bother doing all this "anti gonna get caught techniques"? If you do the wrong thing, be big enough to cop it. If you want to use Citylink/tolls, pay up! it's not that expensive for the tolls, and don't speed = no speeding tickets.

Yeah but covering up your plates like that isnt the way to go about getting around a ticket, just dont speed where they have a camera, its not that hard, if you live in an area you know where they are commonly set up.

The story on ACA also showed them getting the numberplate even with the flash via some photoshopping, few darkness changes etc and it can be seen easy as pie

Cmon mate.. I've never been caught by a copper or a fixed speed camera..

Both my tickets came from mobile camera's.. Ie, a Commodore on the side of the road with a camera on it's dash.. My tickets were 6km/h over and 7km/h over..

The only way to avoid those is to not speed, AT ALL..

1. you shouldnt speed to start with

2. look at the example pictures the one with the spray has had added brightness and contrast compared to the pic without.... that alone tells me its full of **** product, i didnt have to look for more than 2 seconds to notice that and i dont have to look further into it to know its dodgey
