Hate bad designers. US has some egregious road design.

Don't make stroads. Either make streets with traffic calming or roads. This will reduce most of the need for speed checks.

And instead of hiding, just put that car in plain view. People will slow down automatically. You can even cheap our and out a cardboard car to fake a police car, studies have show this works😂

    hiding and being visible are very different philosophies on speed enforcement:

    hidden cars and cameras are intended to slow people down in general; marked cars and cameras are intended to slow people down in specific areas

    neither are particularly right or wrong imo, and in fact where i live in australia both are used regularly
