In Toronto Canada, the speed camera on Parkside Drive has fallen once again. So far this year, it has been destroyed six times. Last week's attack came despite efforts by the city and vendor to use surveillance cameras to monitor the highly profitable automated ticketing camera.

On Wednesday, vigilantes in Marseille, France, used explosives to blow up the speed camera on the Chemin du Littoral. They uploaded video of the action to X. In Saint-Martin-en-Haut, pink spraypaint blinded the frequently attacked speed camera on the RD311. Those responsible tagged their work "FLMDL," which refers to "Front de liberation des monts du Lyonnais," an anti-photo radar organization. Vigilantes in San Martino di Lupari, Italy, torched the speed camera on Via Sandra on Monday, July 7.
