For instance, in AZ, we have photo radar. It is widely known you will not get flashed for doing 9 MPH or below the posted limit; legal is 65 but you won't get flashed doing 74 MPH.
I've been trying to explain the difference between the law and law enforcement for a long time on this forum. I have no idea why it's not sinking in.
