Re: OT: Speed Cams

This is part of an april fools joke that KTAR is doing this year. Last year
the april fools was turning the 101 and the 51 into toll roads. each costing
$1.01 and $0.51 respectivly. this is the link to their story
http://ktar.com/?nid=6&sid=1112673. Usually it's either the next day or at
least near the end of the day when they do their announcment of "April
Fools!". So don't worry this is just an april fools joke.
