Ideal camera placement for vehicle detection

edit

Hello, I'm working on a vehicle detection project and for demo purpose, we're going to install a camera outside the building, aside the road. I was wondering if there is a standard, or best practice on camera placement for vehicle detection i.e. height, angle etc. Please note that target system isn't going to be installed on any highway. Targeted environment is single lane road. Any suggestion will be highly appreciated. Thanks.
