Before you see any camera they put a sign with a picture of a camera by the road. At that point most people realize that they should slow down. The only problem is to which speed? I tend to ask "what's the speed limit, anyone?". My son believes they deliberately omit this kind of information in order to get some income from putting up the cameras. I don't know.
Most people don't want a ticket, so I guess they slow down. But to which speed? Lately the range of allowed speed limits have increased, so it could be 110, 100, 90, 80, 70, 60, 50 or even 30.
Then the camera comes and and I tend to look for a flash, instead of paying attention to the small turning or whatever obstacle there is at that same place. However, it seems there is never any flash!
The result of all this is probably that some cars slow down to some arbitrary speed while others just continue, since they have figured out that the cameras don't work.
I guess that the local authoritized have been creative and are trying a new trick instead of taking their responsibility and improving the road. But isn't it a bit like having a photographer saying "cheese" and instead of just repeating the word, people in front of the camera starts talking about different kinds of cheese... kind of pointless?
