Blitz Cameras

The two odd poles in the picture?  Blitz cameras (speed cameras).  They are down on the Mainzer Strasse in Wiesbaden.  They are arranged to catch you going and coming.

Germans over the past decade have gotten around to permanent cameras....mounted in a way that you can't destroy them....if you got kinda peeved.

You could drive this route every single day, and after a while....not even think about it....except to keep your speed a couple of 'clicks' under the max.
