He was screwing his secretary and would have never gotten caught if it wasn't for those stupid camera's.HHHAAAAAHHAAA!!!
Well,anyway,he was confronted by wife
,got divorced,got screwed 
for everything he owned and got fired 
!! So now, they blur the passenger side on the pictures.

For example If I take a picture of someone here getting laid at the beach at nite and posted it all over the net. As long as I did not go through any illegal means to snap the picture. (No breaking or entering to someones house for example.) They couldnt do jack about it...
Thats why I could take a picture of someones tasteless body mods to a car post it in a humiliating fashion all over the net and not get in any legal trouble, as long as the vehicle was in public view when I took the picture.
And goodness he could of just said they were having a bussiness related meeting. Assuming she wasnt doing anything but sit in the passenger seat when the picture was taken.
And the sensors in the streets for red light to green light are not entirely fool proof for some bike riders. I believe the treshold is somewhere around 500 lbs. My roomate in his R6 has to dismount his bike and hit the pedestrian button on his bike or else hell be sitting there till daylight.
