It's on anywhere there aren't houses right next to the highway...

...or in areas where residents drive horse drawn buggies... But being "on" for me these days is usually <10 mph over the limit. Speeding on straight roads just doesn't do it for me, but put me on twisty mountain roads...

If it's a school zone (doing school hours) , I am OK with them doing it**
HOKIERIT • 06/12/23 05:10 PM ET
Requires you to make a trip to traffic court and ask for due process
BayHokie • 06/12/23 10:42 AM ET
and you will likely lose that argument in court
Vienna_Hokie • 06/12/23 12:18 PM ET
if no penalty other than a fine, is it any different than a parking ticket?
dans93 • 06/12/23 11:59 AM ET
Yep...I'm gonna get hammered. Will need a ticket budget annually. Unless ->

Virginia law is pretty restrictive on camera use.

More efficient than "Speed Checked by Aircraft".
Chris ColemanAdmin • 06/12/23 10:35 AM ET
Fake news- they can’t afford it, thankfully. **
YardBird • 06/12/23 09:02 PM ET
Many signs read "speed checked by radar and vascar". Not sure I have ever
Nortazhokie • 06/12/23 04:15 PM ET
I was told the speed check by aircraft was to cost prohibitive so that is
jdkhokie • 06/12/23 11:10 AM ET
Yep, they can't write tickets fast enough to pay for
HortHokie • 06/12/23 11:29 AM ET
Frankly I can't believe they ever used it to catch speeders.
EDGEMAN • 06/12/23 11:49 AM ET
