We have stop light cameras. I drive through them. Can’t get a ticket as only a police officer can issue tickets.

I was visiting Melbourne a short while back and loads of Mobile camera cars there too. Not many fixed speed cameras (except at intersections doing speed and stop signal violations) but it was rare to be on a journey and not see at least one parked up. My brother and his wife knew what to look out for though so wasn't a problem!

Yes, sometimes disguised as regular cars on the road. There are devices that can detect them and devices that can detect radar detectors. I heard using radar detectors can get you a pretty high fine if they catch you.

Yes. In fact its contracted out to a specialist company, so they arent just police or police Vehicles. With practice we know what to look for in the suburbs. In the city areas as well as police patrols we also have speed cameras build into intersection red light cameras.. And in the country they have highway Patrol, plus robotic cameras stationed to enforce road works speed limits..Really, its easier to stick to the limits, which is kind of the point...😷

In the UK they have to be in plane site but its sometimes to late when you spot them. I find they mostly stop and the bottom of steep hills where trying to keep under 30 is hard. They also have hand cameras and stand on the side of the road.

@nevergiveup In some places at least they also announce via the local newspapers which roads they will be on in the county, over the next week. Not the locations or times, just the roads.
That might seem strange until you realise it is to try to deter speeding overall; which is really the object of the exercise. Dorset Police has erected signs in places with the prohibition roundel and the slogan "No Excuse" - which is, of course, true!
Another form of the sign has the same slogan but the roundel holds a drawing of a portable telephone: using one while driving is also an offence as it removes full control of the vehicle.

We have a couple stoplight cameras downtown.
Just so happens they both have an unbelievably quick “yellow”
It’s kinda bullsh*t

@nedkelly They are sneaky over here, if you get caught with a radar detector in your car its a very heavy fine. Plus they have cameras on the traffic lights.

They are fucking everywhere. The Government need the money so they can go on their next money wasting spree.
