Speed Cameras Being Fooled by Cloned Plates
In Maryland Students make fake plates, speed through intersections, then the Photo Enforcement Devices mail tickets to the owners of the plates. In England this is referred to as plate cloning. The Maryland students call it the "speed camera pimping game."Source: Local teens claim pranks on countys Speed Cams (Montgomery County Sentinel)

Get Speed Trap Alerts on your Cell Phone
Anything to avoid being stopped may be worth a look.
At http://www.trapster.com/ you can sign up for free to get Speed Trap alerts on your Cell Phone or GPS device. Trapster® users share the location of police speed traps by simply clicking their mobile phones. It uses your phone's GPS and Internet to alert you as you approach reported traps
From their website:
"If you are concerned you should probably check the laws in your state or country, but our lawyers don't think so. In fact, the police we've spoken with actually like the idea. It beeps, people slow down, they have met their objective, you save money on the ticket and insurance, and everyone is happy. The police can always find plenty of other people to issue violations to. People who don't use Trapster®, that is."
It is currently available for:
iPhone 3G, BlackBerry, Nokia s60 (N95 and similar) or other unlocked Java/J2ME phone, or Windows Mobile, Garmin, TomTom, or Dash Express.
