That only works if everyone in town knows about it and you only catch tourists. If you start nailing locals for something they do all the time, they get really upset.

Maybe they should stop parking in bike lanes then.

Perhaps. But usually what happens when city gov't starts relentlessly targeting their own citizens with what amounts to revenue generation via enforcement, the citizens effect change in the gov't so it stops.

Seems good: make the law reflect reality, rather then fake laws with no enforcement.

NYC still has automated red light cameras... well known to piss people off. So I would say experimentally you are wrong.

That didn't seem to have stopped the enforcement efforts in places like Missouri.
