i do not have a car but have heard some people have tried beating speed cameras? i would also like to know whether these products are illegal or not?

A light film of wd40 or another thin oil attracts all the road muck to where it is applied, you wouldn't believe how fast your numberplates become illegible

Various things went on the market here in Ontario when photo radar started. All of them proved not worth buying, including sprays and polarized covers for your tags. They dont work. Remember anything you can think of has already been tested by the people making these things. Best thing to do is drive the speed limit or at the most 10 over and you wont ever be bothered and will probably live longer.

Some of those sprays do work, but only on the old style analogue Gatso cameras. Even then they are not foolproof and I have known people who have been caught. They do not work on the new digital or specs cameras to my knowledge.
Better are the GPS systems that tell you where the fixed a mobile camera locations are.

Yeah, it is true.
You spray it on your number plate and when the camera takes a pick the spray reflects the flash and makes the plate seem blank. I knew a website where you could buy it but i totally forgot what it is. No one will even know the sparay is on as it is totally invisible!

Those sprays can work as they reflect the flash back, but they don't always. Best off getting a camera detector and if you really don't wanna slow down for the camera, use the pavement or a grassy verge, they can't scan there!!

Yes there are coatings that can be applied that can opscure the figures to a lens. These are illegal tho and if a police car has a camera in it it will pull you and charge you.

Three ways you can avoid being caught by a speed camera.
One, change your plates with black insulation tape whilst driving.
Two, steal plates and use them instead of your own.
Or three, call me naive, but drive within the parimeters of the speed limits set by law.

No you cannot avoid a speed camera; u can avoid getting caught by driving slow.
