Hidden Camera Snagging Northwest D.C. Speeders

Speed cameras are common in D.C., but one in particular is causing a stir among drivers.

Positioned next to a tree on Missouri Avenue in Northwest, the camera is hidden from approaching drivers on a stretch of road is notorious for speeding and accidents.

In some cases, speed cameras are accompanied by warning signs, but a spokesperson for the police department was unaware of a legal obligation to post such signs. A complete list of photo enforcement locations is available on the police department website.

The hidden camera looks like a revenue generator to some who spoke to News4. Others said that if you obey the speed limit, speed cameras are a non-issue.
