"Warning: The next time you're watching the road, it might be watching you. The FBI, Department of Homeland Security, and Alabama Department of Transportation have tested a speed trap device that hides inside reflective lane markers.

Meanwhile, a digicam records the license plate. The data is sent to a computer over a GPRS cell network, allowing for remote ticketing."
