Got Caught By a Red Light Camera?
Well, if you are a South Dakota resident and have SD plates, worry no more. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/apr/3/editorial-three-cheers-for-south-dakota/

Not a huge fan of the way cameras have been implemented but...
Unfortuantely, it's a lot easier than you think to get ahold of the owners address and once in the Iowa system you are no longer immune.
The newer cameras can incorporate license plate readers. It would be easy to stage a live officer downstream and when a car with multiple tickets is detected, he gets pulled over, his address goes into the system and he gets a handful of tickets (and little lienency in an attempt to get SD to play along)
This probably addresses a once in 10yr trip across country but if you live near the border, it could be a real mess when they do catch up with you.
