Californians
 
During my last trip to California, I noticed that there is some kind of detector (I think) about every mile on the highways. I've searched for a picture of what I'm talking/asking about, but can't find one. Each location seems to be identical, and includes a solar package and a white box thing that is pointing down toward the road. And, no, the white box does not appear to be a camera.

Californian CP'ers, have you seen these and do you know what they are, please?

Thanks.

Not sure what you are talking about. Can you go more in detail?

Other than the white box thing pointing at the roadway and a solar package, there really isn't much else to add. Both are on free-standing poles, however.

That was my first guess and I've not been on a CA highway in some time.

I saw them driving through N. California and I have no idea what they were.

These aren't cameras. And, they are on the interstates (about every mile) not intersections.

I have a pretty good guess what they are, but I'm looking for confirmation.

I'll pay attention tonight when I'm driving home, but they may not have them in SD County.

How big is the box thats pointing towards the road?
