One of thousands of cameras? Might be a bit of an overstatement.
According to an article written in 2010 (after the state stopped the
photo speed enforcement program), only a few local jurisdictions still
use them.

"This is much more limited in scale and scope," [Matthew Benson, a
spokesman for the Governor's Office] said. "You've only got (eight)
instances of this throughout the state."

Here are some images of my wife I with a Nevada State Patrol in hot pursuit. She had the ticket printed before we were even stopped as witnessed on camera. In Arizona, they will just send you a ticket in the mail if one of the thousands of cameras tracks you speeding.
