Average Speed Cameras
Also known as section cameras, these measure average speed over a distance between two or more camera points, making it impossible to simply brake at the camera location.

How It Works
Average speed cameras (also called section cameras) work in pairs or groups. The first camera records your entry time, and the last records your exit time. Your average speed is calculated over the distance between cameras. If your average exceeds the limit, a fine is issued.
Where Used
Average speed cameras are widely used in the UK (SPECS system), Italy (Tutor/SICVe-PM on motorways), Netherlands, Norway, and Australia. They are particularly effective on long stretches of highway.
