Joel Plowright asked the Naked Scientists:
Somebody told me that we sneeze at 100mph. So what would happen if I sneezed in front of a speed camera?
From
Joel
What do you think?

If ewe sneezed out a car from your nose then ewe might get a ticket !...else...ewe could sneeze upon the lens and have the official tissue wipers from the authorities come and clean the camera ......
..however I don't think sneezing at 100mph would set the camera clicking to catch your sneeze. I can't imagine a sneeze providing enough density for the cameras beam thingy to be reflected back and trigger the lens/shutter.
I imagine they might pick up the odd fast swooping bird perhaps !

Hmmmmm, no, I won't go there.

Unless you're sneezing chaff, most radar cameras wouldn't care.
