Photos: Chinese use Maxipads, dead ducks to skirt traffic cameras

One small step for panty liners, one giant leap for womankind.

Those who say "Chinese innovation is dead" obviously aren't looking in the right places. In this collection of photos it's clear to see just how creative people are willing to get when faced with the prospect of getting caught by speed cameras.

While the hi-tech gadgets get a hat-tip from us for preparedness and James Bondesque style, the real winners of the show are the people who made do with the few materials available to them -- MacGuyvering their way out of 200RMB traffic fines one sanitary napkin at a time.

So here's to you, Maxipad-wielding BMW driver. We're not sure if your trunk is full of these adhesive wonders in hopes the comedic factor will discourage any investigation, or if you had a stroke of brilliance while running late to work, but may your days ahead be filled with extra-absorbancy-goodness.
