    Default I was wondering.........

    Last night at about half midnight i had to take an unexpected 2 hr drive, for the ex mrs. it was pretty frosty out there, when i went out to the car everything was frozen, even the lights. as i went about my journey with extremne caution, i went past a speed camera and this got me thinking......do the lenses frost up, thus meaning the picture would be null and void????

    12 Points?? That means your disqualified! As soon as you get that 12th point your licence is revoked, it's called totting up. Guess what I do for a living.

    Suggest you have a look here mate.

    But got me thinking about frost affecting the Camera's too!

    A clever manufacturer of speed camera's would fit some sort of small heating device. As this would be the only sure way to prevent moisture condensing on the surface lens and then freezing over.
    The question is... have they thought of this?

    They fit small heaters in like the units used in CCTV cameras and external control cabinets.
