At the risk of sounding daft but im a bit puzzled by why they fined the guy. Cameras are there to make people slow down and remind them to be more aware of their speed. He was warning drivers to watch their speed just the same as you would if there was a hazard ahead or if you considered someone to be driving in a reckless manor.
Imo its far better that if people are not aware of the speed they are traveling at or if they are in excess of the limit they slow down gradually rather than spot the camera and then slam their brakes on which could cause an accident.
To me cameras dont really work. as people that are speeding just speed up again after passin the trap. After a trip to the Lakes i noticed a sign stating how many people had died or suffered injuries on the section of road i was traveling on, also in Llandudno they have recently put up signs which display the speed you are traveling at. these seem to be more effective if you ask me. Sorry if ive rambled, i feel i may have gone off on a tangent.
