Does 5th amendment protection apply in cases like this?  It would seem that if
your countermeasures are serious enough ('interfering with a police officer')
to warrant a criminal suit rather than a civil one ('speeding'), then you
might legitimately be able to take the 5th, and

I'm suprised that no one has suggested spoofing the radar.  I can understand
the admirable restraint of the rec.ham-radio community, since proposing 
something that would violate FCC regs.

Making the license plate 'invisible' to the camera is a neat hack.
The original post didn't make clear whether the photo takes a picture of the
front of the car or the back.  In some states (PA & WVA), front plates are not
required, and people tend to buy 'bumper-sticker' style plates for their cars.
In PA, this is a popular one:  

Normal rear plate		'hack' front plate
+-----------------------+	+-----------------------+

Anyway, I recall a story about a guy with 'NONE' on a vanity plate, and
he ended up with a lot of extra parking tickets.  I see the same thing
happening here, except with more amusing results.
