Drivers have been urged to ignore some common speed camera myths.
The first speed camera was installed in the UK in 1991 - and was introduced to ensure motorists stayed within the legal driving limits to preserve people's safety. A study from London School of Economics conducted between 1992 - 2016 estimated that speed cameras reduced deaths from road accidents by between 58% - 68%.
A whole host of tricks have since spread about how drivers can beat speed camera, but the AA warned drivers must ignore these dangerous myths. The motoring association said: "You shouldn't be trying to avoid getting caught. It's safer for everyone to stick to the limits - and the law - by not speeding in the first place."
