    Truvelo cameras do not use infra red flashes it's just a filter over the flash bulb, you will see it well enough when you get flashed by one.
    Nothing to see here, move along.

    To avoid the 'flash' which is given out by a rear facing Gatso camera the Truvelo system uses an infra red flash which produces no visible 'flash' to the approaching driver


    And then contradicted here :)

    Try it without even entering a registration mark and see what you get.

    You might even find gullible isn't in the dictionary.

    Be aware that Truvelos can also move... :)

    We have one by us that (i assume automatically) rotates 180 degrees to catch people going down the road at certain times, and up the road at other times depending on the time of day.
