Interestingly, there were a numerous sections of highways in New South Wales where average speeds were calculated by cameras. Sounds like the foolproof system for catching speeders. They have video cameras mounted over the highway lanes that read you licenses plates. They note when you’ve passed through and calculate the time it takes you to get through the next series of video cameras 10kms (or so) down the road. If it finds you speeding they just mail you your speeding ticket. Unlike point based speed traps, you can’t slow down too fool the radars because your speed is calculated by the average you travelled over the 10kms. Very smart and effective, I think.
