Five years ago I got a speeding ticket in Portland, OR. Yes, I was fleeing the area, heading back to the airport. I got a ticket about a year after that, and it included a nice picture of me driving the rental car. Since I had some time on my hands, I decided to plead not guilty and head on down to court. When I got there, they immediately threw all the camera cases out, simply because the arresting officer wasn't present. Turns out they're never present.

I don't know what the difference is between US and UK cameras, and admittedly you have to go ridiculously fast, but you CAN do it.

Good for your governor. Those things are dangerous and nothing more than an extortion tool.

I agree wholeheartedly.
