Go to Ocean Front Walk (OFW), just west of the boardwalk, between midnight and 5 am. And please, remember that you aren’t supposed to be there at that time. But if you do go, and break the curfew, a camera will snap your picture.
Yes, the camera will snap your picture breaking the law. If that isn’t humiliating enough, you will also get a mini lecture. One will hear: “Stop … this area is closed. Your photograph was just taken. Leave the area now.”
The motion-detection cameras are wireless, solar powered, and transmit photos to a server. This is another crime deterrent the City has installed for the Ocean Front Walk area. They focus only on area west of boardwalk.
Update, not the City, has dubbed them Chatty Snaps. So don’t get snapped by the Chatty Snapper.
