    Meanwhile, hidden traps and unmarked cars have only one purpose: generate ticket revenue.

    That’s not true - knowing that there could be a speed trap hidden anywhere makes drivers more likely to actually follow the law. Hidden traps are only an issue for people who believe that breaking the speed limit should be the norm.

      I dont believe this is true in practice as much as you might like it to be, and I’d love to see any actual data you might have to support your assertion

        Self reporting is going to be dubious at best when it comes to admitting breaking the law

          IF there’s no data, then we don’t come to @[email protected]’s conclusion . We don’t draw any conclusion. We admit we don’t know, and continue to try to discover a method for collecting data.
