French yellow vest protesters have run out of speed cameras to destroy in some parts of the country after weeks of demonstrations, it has been reported.
There have been relentless attacks to the point where no fixed cameras are working in the Vaucluse department and just three out of 49 are functioning in Lot-et-Garonne.
It comes just weeks after it was reported that half of France's speed cameras are out of action because of widespread acts of vandalism during yellow vest protests.

By December 11, The Local reported, 250 of France's 3,275 fixed speed cameras had been damaged beyond repair while 1,500 more had been damaged to a point where they were out of order.
It will take 'millions of euros' to fix the devices, France's Road Safety association said.
The Newspaper.com, which highlighted the Vaucluse and Lot-et-Garonne figures, gave examples of some of the techniques used to put cameras out of use.
One, in Domalain, was covered with a blue gift box on Christmas Day, while another in Renty was 'blinded' with spraypaint for the tenth time this year.
Others around the country have been wrapped in clingfilm or torched, while over the border in Germany, protesters turned one camera into a giant candy cane.
Meanwhile, President Emmanuel Macron used his New Year's Eve address to say the French government 'can do better' at improving citizens' lives.
'We can do better and must do better,' Macron said in a 16-minute televised speech from the Elysee palace while urging the French to 'accept the reality' that increased public spending was not the answer to their problems.

Macron's speech had been keenly awaited, coming at the end of a torrid six weeks for the centrist, whose leadership has been severely rattled by six weeks of demonstrations that have repeatedly turned violent.
On Monday, he attempted to turn the page on the crisis and start 2019 on an upbeat note.
'I believe in us,' he said.
Citing hopes for more 'truth, dignity and hope' in 2019, he urged the French: 'Let's stop running ourselves down and making believe that France is a country where solidarity doesn't exist.'
'We live in one of the biggest economies in the world, with some of the best infrastructure in the world, we pay little or nothing for our children's schooling and we are treated by excellent doctors at some of the lowest costs in the developed world,' he said.
While acknowledging the need for improved public services, particularly in rural areas where the yellow vest movement sprang up over anger at fuel taxes, he noted that public spending already amounted to over half of the country's output.
As he spoke, demonstrators clad in high-visibility yellow vests again gathered in Paris and other big cities to demand more measures in favour of the working poor and a greater say for ordinary people in the running of the country, in the form of citizen-sponsored referendums.
Several dozen protesters joined tens of thousands of tourists gathered on the famous Champs-Elysees avenue in Paris - the scene of pitched battles between protesters and police on several consecutive weekends before Christmas - for a New Year's fireworks display.
Macron took aim at the radical fringe of the yellow vests and their supporters on the far right and hard left, saying 'some who claim to speak in the name of the people' merely acted as the 'megaphones of a hate-filled crowd'.
'Republican order will be ensured with no leniency,' he vowed, listing 'lawmakers, the security forces, journalists, Jews, foreigners, homosexuals' as being the objects of physical and verbal attacks.
He also vowed not to be swayed from his reform agenda, which was thrown into question after he jettisoned his controversial fuel tax hike and announced 10 billion euros in aid for the low-paid to try to tame the revolt.
Link hienalouca.com Interesting to note Looking for an investor or sponsor for a project to grow dinosaurs and relict plants. Requires the sum of investments from 400000$ to 900000$. The exact amount can not say because there are many nuances. It will be necessary to build a small laboratory with certain parameters. To all interested persons please write on an email angocman@gmail.com . It is the scientific project and I do not know whether it is possible to earn on it. The probability of success of the project is approximately 60%. That will be very interesting.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
