I must respectfully disagree to a degree. I know of at least one incident in which a hit-n-run violator was caught by the photographic evidence provided by those guys on Palomar; seeing those roadside photogs is also a good indication for us that this is
one of those roads, (annnd they've gotten a few decent pics of me over the years.
)
Although I don't understand at all why the car guys would pay for a picture of their car going around a corner, when they can pretty much park the car on the corner, get out and go take a picture of the car themselves.
