My understanding is that they were painted yellow to act as a deterrent. There is also an argument that the sudden realisation that there is a speed camera at a location can encourage heavy braking and consequential risk of accident - hence the advance signage.
The daily location of mobile cameras is included on their websites by some police forces and the local radio where I lived used to announce them.

Yes that's what I said...recording beyond the boundary
I've also used the word likely in my comments about inadmissible
You have then used the word unlikely that a lawyer would ....argue that......
But then in your first sentence you say that I am wrong
In reality I would suspect that it depends what the defence / prosecution want to do in that particular case and what the circumstances are and also what the judge has had for breakfast.
Okay. I should have said 'partly wrong' as I was agreeing with you about GDPR and signage.
Yes you used the word 'likely' and you were wrong when you did so. That was my point... I used the word 'unlikely', because it is - highly unlikely to the point of there being a vanishingly small chance of it happening - that any judge would exclude CCTV because it was 'unfair' that the offender wasn't told they were on camera.
If I thought that you were right to use the word 'likely' then I would have indicated that i agreed with you, but as was pretty clear to you, I was disagreeing, hence I used the word 'unlikley'...
Put another way, GDPR is about protecting the privacy of people going about their daily business. The notion that any judge would find that it also covered the privacy of people committing criminal offences is fanciful to say the least, no matter what they had for breakfast.
So I wasn't wrong then.
I just had a different opinion to you as to what's likely ....or not
What about dash cams ?
They collect tons of data. all outside your property .
Dash Cams- One of the first things that the police ask for if there’s been a major crime committed. Also, always helps if you’ve been hit in a vehicle crash but, beware of the fact they also record your speed you were doing at the time of the accident.
In that case chuck it 😁
