That's win.

Easy to spot, no reverse setup... Do like.

i honestly reckon cops wouldn't notice them 80 percent of the time
No they don't work anymore.

Yes cops can spot them a mile away.

Yes you get anally probed for having them.

eh its nothing new, but if you dont notice that giant window on the back of that van you deserve to get caught, those are heaps easier to see than a camera behind tree. in the eastern states i got done by a camera that was mounted in the back of a stock 4x4, you can not tell its a camera until it flashes. so i reckon we have got it pretty easy

Guys, why do you assume "no reverse setup" when you go past the van front on - it's in reverse.

Only motorbikes will still get the advantage when they approach the rear of the van as there will be no reverse camera - or so we assume. For all we know there is a reverse set up camera in the front passenger seat.

I agree that the van's will be easier to spot but the chance of getting a reverse laser alert is now well and truly not going to happen.

So if you get an alert on laser with a rear arrow - it will only be alerting that you just got a ticket!

We're assuming that they won't be set up (parked) facing the oncoming traffic (and thus being rear set up) because they wouldn't blend in too well.

I also thought Irish parking was illegal too...
