El Paso had them mounted but not calibrated, so they didn't take pictures but randomly flashed. Pretty typical of American South West culture in my limited south west experience. Good idea, half-executed. It's pretty hot down there, I suppose that has alot to do with it. I noticed the same thing in Ireland. Alot of half-completed road projects. For instance, when they joined the EU, they were to completely transfer to the metric system. They put up KPH road signs, next to the MPH road signs, and never took down the MPH signs. Maybe it was to get people used to it. Maybe I'm rambling.

RE: Hard to complain
Just curious - which country?
I remember Korea has speed cameras mounted all over the MSRs although only some of them worked. You just had to watch for the sudden slowdown in traffic as the locals know which ones are live. Orrrrr you just drove so fast that the camera didn't catch you. The problem Korea had was the cameras faced oncoming traffic instead of catching you as you passed. So enough speed was enough to close the distance and make your license plate unreadable - I know because the only ticket I ever got was for going somewhere around 10~15kph over instead of the typical 60kph over at the same point.
