Does this really work?

In this article, Gordon Ramsey claims wrapping his license plates in cling wrap allows him to defeat speed cameras. Has anyone ever tried this and do you think it really works? I'll go do mine now if it does!

I’ve tried Slowing The F-Down, it works.

The hope with the plastic isn’t that the camera flash will reflect off, which it might if the angle and sun is right, or it might not, or the system may not rely on a flash.
