    Default Laser Speed Cam to enforce in Chevy Chase

    story:

    washingtonpost.com

    "Right now, we're not getting 35 to 38 percent of violators," Gordon said. "Now we'll be able to get them all."

    Two new laser-driven cameras might be ready for use by Friday, replacing a pair that use radar and have been in place since 2007 slightly more than a quarter of a mile north of Chevy Chase Circle.
    "It's an arms race," he said. "They deploy this new technology, and we upgrade, too, so that you can keep your hard-earned cash in your pocket."

    I wonder what type of laser gun they use, anyone in the area with an LI willing to do a test run?

    Laser cameras sound like fun, I think I like this new technology.

    Are jammers effective against these? Next time I'm out that way I'm going to check it out.

    Sounds like this is one case where JTG would be a good thing.

    Chevy Chase MD is very close to the Rt 100 Rt 29 Eastern MD neighborhoods which use the Pro III style (Contour Survey) red light cameras.

    My bet is that these are similar.

    There is a Contour LIDAR - LaserCraft - company


    ( I thought there was a MD office) which makes this speed system:
