[QUOTE="MrF, post: 69885, member: 10292"] That does almost look like their hair is in a bun in the second shot. When I lived in TX I was 10 miles south of a town of 3000 that sat right on the highway. Conveniently, the speed limit went from 70mph to 35 for the half mile stretch through the actual town limits and it was a notorious speed trap. On a Saturday, you'd usually see three police cars from the town and one from the county constable's office all within that half mile of highway. There were lots of complaints, but I think the income generated from the tickets won out. Particularly since all the locals knew about it and the cops were mostly getting people passing through. I don't know how it is in Canada, but many local governments in the US right now are struggling to find ways to increase revenue and this, along with red-light cameras and speed cameras, are unfortunately a good way to do it.
