You were probably hoping they'd install one of those the speed limit is / your speed is signs. Interestingly there are a few of those that alert the police to speeders in real time. Most log the data so they can set up speed traps optimally.Only thing I had stolen was my Raspberry Pi based speed camera, which I used to send pictures with speeds to my police chief, who insisted we did not have speeding problem on our very narrow street. He was wrong and apparently recognized couple cars and went to talk to owners. My bet is one of the teens who I caught on the cam got reprimanded and in revenge came and stole the camera, since many in my small town knew of my "crusade".
