The automatic speed traps in Switzerland take two pictures so I assume they 
calculate the speed from the pictures rather than a radar picture.  However, 
not all the boxes contained the cameras, they were rotated around to different 
locations.

And yes I have heard similar stories involving spouses being caught in 
indiscretions but they were more along the lines of spouse and mistress being
photographed speeding.  You can fill in the dirty UL details yourself.
