Some of them have cameras in them but most don't. The funny thing is that it keeps track of all the speeds and will tell you the average speed for the time it was parked, so some of the guys take their patrol cars and keep flying by it so the average speed increases and then the chief looks at it and says WTF people are really flying through here we better do more patrols in this area. lmfao

If you guys want to attract the police to an area, then keep speeding past those things. The data is interpreted and then action taken. It won't be long before you have a real smokey waiting for ya also.

Im guilty of it. The cops out where im at will hide up the road from the sign and clock you from there too then pull you over. They also put cameras on them to send you tickets when there not watching you.

we know...thats why you pass once to look for cops. the fun part is seeing how fast you can go....so if they take them away to analyze data theres no reason to speed through that section of road anymore.
