For as well as detecting speeding, it is packed with gizmos that check
number plates to make sure insurance and tax are up to date.


It also measures the distance between vehicles to spot tailgating and takes
pictures of the inside of the car - to make sure you are wearing a seat
belt.

It is the first to detect multiple offences at the same time and is
connected to police computers via satellite, so that prosecutions can be
started within seconds of any offence.

Now the big question..are they bullet proof, and proof against having 5
gallons of gasoline dumped on them and after a reasonable amount of
time..having a railroad flare tossed on top?
