I do not see a problem with it. The problem with fixed camera sites is they often only slow people down within 500m each side of them. The cops know this and they also know those that slow down for the fixed camera and then speed up again, are often those same people that always travel over the limit. In other words, serial offenders.
If someone slows down for the fixed camera, speeds up and then gets pinged by either a speed camera or handheld unit, they can suck it up! They broke the law, they should pay the fine. If they do it so often that they lose their license through points, bad luck.
No one seems to mention that the places that the fixed cameras are located on in QLD are all on stretches of road that have a terrible history with multiple fatalities/serious injury crashes.
