Several years ago there used to be one of those things in between Dallas and
Ft. Worth Texas.  I think it was called ORBUS or something like that.

This one didn't use radar, it timed the car with pressure plates in the
road.  The car drives over the first one, a stop watch starts, the car
drives over the second one, the stop watch stops and if you crossed by the
two plates too fast it took you're picture.

I heard some good rumors about how some people got it removed.  Like I
said rumors, so I don't know if it is true or not (anyone know for sure??).

Rumor 1.  At night someone would drive by the ROBOCOP below the speed limit
and shoot it couple of times with a shotgun.  This would be repeated every time
the city would fix it.

Rumor 2.  Some married guy sued the city after his wife opened the mail
and found a picture of him and his girlfriend "playing" together as they
sped by the ROBOCOP.  The city sent out a copy of the picture to person they
were giving a ticket to.  This picture shows the driver, the time, the plates
on the car and the speed they were doing.
