Default Canada's Speed Camera for Pipes Passes Test

With all the cash-strapped cities, how long before we see these here?

If they're going to enforce noise, at least the noise snare targets all vehicles. 3 hours to the north they're only ticketing motorcycles.

Although, it's kind of a passive aggressive method of enforcement, which fits quite well with my experiences with Calgarians. (Non-Harley riding Calgarians, that is.)

So let me get this straight, in Canada you can buy Cuban cigars, nasty cigarettes, beer, beer and more beer but damn it, you better not drive down their streets with loud pipes. (Don't get me wrong, I love Cuban cigars and beer)

This new fade of street level cameras for sound and speed are crazy!! I Put a tinted license plate sheild over the plate. Dark enough to hide numbers somewhat. I do it on my cars and bike. I have seen some other things on the market to help make a glare on the plate when the picture is snapped....

Having read the Federal and Provincial noise testing regulations for my shop my gut feeling is after the first successful Court challenge this devise will become a $112,000. dollar boat anchor.
