Sorry to disappoint but speeding fines - fixed penalty or otherwise - go to straight to HM Treasury - no local benefit whatsoever
Maybe we should adopt the European model then? If a village is short on cash they do a quick "raid" on unsuspecting British tourists who have enough trouble keeping to the right handside of the road let alone looking out for gendarmes with speed cameras.
Personally I believe if you speed you deserve the punishment irrespective of where it ends up.
