Actually, camera technology has gotten so good that quite soon you might see tickets for stopping your vehicle just a few inches over the white painted stop line itself.

If you mean the concrete box, it looks like part of the army corps of engineers pump station mount. I'd like to see that big sumbitch in action sometime...

I drove past this today; it's not the speed camera, it's some kind of equipment box.
The speed camera is just south of Arizona Av. on the northbound side and kind of looks like that thing.
