Where Are The Fake Speed Cameras?

Fake Decoy Speed Cameras

More cities are resorting to using fake speed cameras to deter drivers from speeding.  If you look closely inside these boxes there is no actual speed camera inside.  The empty white box above costs about $2500 apiece.  Cities like Laurel, Maryland are a great example of how people are using them. We have added a new category on PhotoEnforced.com that allows users to input fake camera locations into the map.  We think this is a trend that will likely continue as it reduces the costs of maintenance and likely has a similar outcome on slowing drivers down.  Which states allow speed cameras?
