Here's a single example - I was driving on the Oban peninsula last week past a set of roadworks posted at 40 rather than the usual 60, late evening, nobody in sight. Were it not for the identification on my car I'd definitely have exceeded that limit, but didn't for fear of a camera catching me out. As, I reckon, do many motorists every day. So, *thousands* of offences not committed then!
