As I said in an earlier message, which was not published:-
Photos taken by the type of speed camera used in this country
could not be used in evidence in Germany, for instance: the
photo would have to show the driver. However, cameras capable
of doing this, i.e. photographing the car number plate and the
driver from the front, and not the rear, are more expensive
than those used in this country. So, what we have, at present,
is injustice on the cheap and it is only right that under the
Human Rights Act nobody should be forced to incriminate
him/herself.
Does anyone know whether the new digital speed cameras that
are now being installed will be able to identify the driver,
if not, then they would also be a waste of money?

Well, we're completely off-topic here but I have noticed
that some couples have started divvying up speeding offences
so that the worst driver among the two of them doesn't
lose their license, which kind of turns the argument of
the driving safety organisations on its head.
