From [URL="https://luxeadventuretraveler.com/driving-in-italy/"]10 Things to Know Before Driving in Italy - Luxe Adventure Traveler[/URL]: There are several kinds of speed cameras, so let’s take a look at each kind so that you are aware and can go home without worrying that the rental car company will send along your speeding ticket several months later. [B]Sistema Tutor[/B] This is my least favorite kind of speed camera and they are only found on the autostradas (freeways). Sistema Tutor are cameras attached to the signage that crosses all the lanes of the freeway. You have two kinds of Sistema Tudor: one that photographs your car and takes the speed as you enter a monitored stretch of the freeway and again as you leave the stretch to determine your average speed, and the other that instantaneously detects your speed. The information is sent to a central server and if you were speeding, voila! you can expect a ticket in the mail. [B]Fixed Roadside Cameras[/B] Another kind of speed cameras are fixed cameras on the roadside and these can be found in both towns and on the autostrada. They take a picture of you if you’re speeding from both the front and the back and send the information to a central server so that your speeding ticket can be mailed off to you. [B]Speed Traps[/B] We very rarely see them with all the fixed cameras and Sistema Tutor, but Italy does also use good old fashioned polizia or carabinieri that decide to set up in a somewhat hidden spot and use a radar gun or mobile speed camera to clock your speed. Often times, oncoming motorists will signal that a speed trap is coming up by flashing their headlights at you. [/QUOTE]
