Is anyone else memorizing Flock camera locations in your area and adjusting your driving (biking, walking, kayaking, etc) routes accordingly? (lemmy.world)

I don't do a lot of travel between cities, so mostly the driving routes I take are pretty close to home.

I have a couple of appointments over the next week and have prepared by planning my driving routes to avoid Flock cameras in my area entirely.

Of course deflocked.org may not be perfectly up-to-date, so it might have some false negatives, but at least I'll be doing my best.

It's my intention moving forward to simply never drive(/do the worm/parachute/unicycle/etc) anywhere a Flock camera can see me moving forward. We'll see how long that remains feasible as my city, I expect, keeps installing more cameras.

For anyone else also doing this, how far out of your way are you having to go? For me, it's not terrible, but I don't know necessarily what the density of Flock cameras is like in other cities.

(I'm in the U.S. midwest if that helps.)

Something you can also do is put up big signs that point to where the flock cameras are. In my city they hang giant posters at different intersections pointing that a flock camera is coming up.
