Got one of those plastic covers on your license plate to thwart photo radar?
Get out your screwdriver. As of Wednesday, Aug. 9, theyβre going to be illegal.
Β The measure on license plate covers culminates years of efforts by Sen. Steve Farley, D-Tucson.
Farley did not present it as a method of helping police catch more speeding motorists with photo radar, a technology that has proven unpopular with many lawmakers. Instead, he sold it as a law-and-order measure, saying that bad guys get away because police and witnesses to crimes canβt read the license plates of all vehicles.
