One stretch of B-road near where I live recently had a series of these installed, about five of them within the same one mile stretch. Suspiciously, they stopped just before the point where the speed limit changes from 40mph to National Speed Limit (60 in this case). Soooo.......if they're just counters, why so many?

I think the data is used to calculate average speed, to see if it's worthwhile setting up a speed camera, possibly even a time/distance SPECS system.
