Bomb-Proof Speed Camera Spotted In Wild

A new kind of BOMB-PROOF SPEED CAMERA made by the Dutch firm Peek Traffic may soon come to the UK. The camera electronics are housed in a 13-feet high, fire-resistant, thick steel based mounted directly into the ground. Smoke and vibration sensors trigger an alert to the nearest police station that the camera is under attack. Vandals have destroyed speed cameras all over the country with bombs, fires, cars and cricket bats.

Why would you need a bomb, fire, cars, or cricket bat to attack these? There is no need to cause any physical damage. These are cameras which need to see out of glass windows. Just spray some paint on the windows, fool!

If you can't find a paint sprayer that will reach up to the high windows, then get one of those wasp and hornet sprayers that can throw insecticide at a nest from many feet away so you can be safe. Even though the liquid in them isn't a paint, I bet it will dry over the windows into something that would make the pictures unusable.

Nahh, that's not what you do. You get some of that polyfiller expanding foam stuff, and then find and tiny crack or weakness and fill them with the stuff. Blows them apart from the inside. These cameras may not have such a weakness though...
