In Germany they catch you speeding via a camera. So when I was driving from Lithuania via Poland to Frankfurt in early March they caught me doing close 100mph in a 60 mph limit area. If I lived in Germany I would end up paying a $500 fine and would lose my license for a few months. Hard to argue with the evidence. The interesting detail is the black out of the passenger seat (which contained Mike Levi) from the camera view. This was done to address the outcry of citizenry after camera generated tickets began arriving to people's homes with pictures of very surprising passnegers that spouses may have not been aware of. While camera is efficient, I think I prefer the American tradition of arguing with the trooper.
