No need, you can just use an IR spotlight to blind the camera. Unlike the military you're not trying to hide the vehicle.

But either way you're actively trying to avoid being picked up by speed cameras so you get a fine.

This isn't about speed cameras, it's about "safety" surveillance cameras. No laws have to be broken. Evading Flock isn't illegal
