My condolences on the oppresive measures that the Belgian government is
implementing. I use a combination of things on my various vehicles that
should help you. Some of my vehicles have a license plate cover of a thin
plastic that makes the plates unreadable by photo-radar. You can read the
license straight on, it's just from an angle that they are unreadable.
Photo-radar always shoots from the side. This has always worked for me.
I also have a couple of radar jammers. One is a portable with a detector
built in and is called "Phantom II", the other I have built into my sports
car and is undetectable, it has sensors front and rear. It is called Black
Widow and is just a jammer (no detector). The police just cannot gtet a
reading on you. Do a search on radar jammers and you will find them, just
buy the best price.
The license covers I originally bought from an ad every month in the back of
Road and Track magazine. The last sets I bought on e-Bay. Everyone in my
office uses them and so far we are all OK.
Good luck, and do your speeding in Germany!
