  1. if ya get done by one of them ya r fucked! there is nothing you can do except pray hey dont give ya points and its just a fine. they dont have to have the camera signs or anything, however if the camera has taken a picture from the front and it shows the driver and passenger or anyone inside the car, you can get off with that because the law states that you should be allowed to have an affair in privacy and that camera would then be breaking your privacy and you can get off with it, otherwise, just pray!
