squares in the road can also be a car counter. The freeway is covered in them. We had to go find them all last year when were doing an Asset Collection for Main Roads WA

Yeah. These looked like the double cut outs (ala the new redlight/speed camera bizzo's) to do speed measurement. I wouldn't put it past Robby Johnston to have everything good to go, just need a pole with a camera on it.

And I have seen one cruising between Kwinana Industrial strip and Port Kennedy a few times too. X Trail. Thought it was a speed camera - until I was behind it at the lights and could clearly see the camera set up.
