Also we all know that there not just to stop speeding but mainly to bring the money in.
I drive a 17 ton lump of metal as a job and yes i have come around a corner and in an area you don't know and a speed camera can take you by surprise, also i note you say bright yellow camera there's plenty around that are colored green to disguise the cameras with tree's and bushes behind it,
I also don't believe that you have never let your concentration go a little and you have been slightly off guard when driving for a long time or on particular boring journey.
