A speed camera in Petershagen, Germany, was damaged Thursday after it failed to prevent an accident. According to police reports, a 70-year-old motorcyclist tried to dodge a car that had slammed on the brakes near the automated ticketing machine on the B482. As he swerved to avoid a rear-end collision, the rider slammed into the roadside photo radar column, sustaining injuries.

Vigilantes in Frotey-les-Vesoul, France, on Friday torched the speed camera on the RN19, just two days after it had been replaced following a prior attack. In Blanquefort, the speed camera on Avenue du 11-Novembre was set on fire on Tuesday. Likewise, the speed camera on the RD913 in Chenicourt was set ablaze on Saturday, June 7.
