  Seems reasonable to be able to identify cars from both sides

    And unreasonable to walk around to read the back plate?

      We need to make it easier for cops to look us up. This is a police state

  How are speed cameras handled in one plate states? In Germany we have front plates so you get the driver and the plate on one picture

    Owner/holder of registration is held liable for any photoradar that is mail based.

    Officer based (pulled over) is on whomever is driving the vehicle.

    Never seen it be an issue, fault wise

        Yes. On photo, we don’t care who is driving. Owner gets the fine.

        It’s less of a system for correction of bad driving habits and more of a system for renevue generation. Which is shitty
