That I know of only 2 or 3 cameras get you from front on. The trick is to look for is the 3 lines in the road. These are some kind of pressure sensitive crystals (or so I'm led to believe). When the car runs over them it sets off a signal, with 3 lines you get 3 signals compare this with a calibrated signal of the speed limit and you get done.

I have proved this with at least 10 or so cameras in NSW, you just slow down enuf and look for the lines in the road for your local camera. Most times you can even feel them thru the suspension. The only camera that I'm having big issues working out, where it is is the one in the habour tunnel. The RTA have done a good job of hiding the lines and making the lines smooth, I have only picked up the south bound camera once.

So yeah if you are traveling in the direction that the signs say there is a camera and you know it is that direction (they put signs up for both ways sometimes) You only have to be doing the speed limit for the crossing of the lines in the road, as for the other way look for those lines and in most cases don't worry about it.

For a fact I know that
James Ruse Drive is one way
Castle hill rd is one way

and I can point out to you where the cameras in both M5 tunnels are, the ED and Southern Cross drive.

I don't trust them either I slow down atleast 5-10kph when I go thru a trap
