You will probably need to have the camera in video mode, and subsequently
locate which frames give you the best view of the house number. Trying to both

would be about as risky as trying to send text messages while pedaling. Also,
you probably need to have the camera mounted on a pole so that it can see over
parked vehicles and pedestrians.
