Truvelo lines - Happy Blue!
There is a Truvelo camera on the A56 leading into Manchester, on a slight downwards hill. Its sited just beyond a Fire Station on the opposite side of the road.

Thing is, there are only three narrow white lines across the carriageway no more than 1ft apart. No other lines in the area at all.

Whats going on? Is this camera set up properly. Most people seem to ignore it and yet I've not heard of anyone getting caught by it, and if there was I would have heard as its near to where I live.

Thanks - no sign of the sensors at the camera near me that I can recall. I'll go and have another look.

Truvelo lines - patently
Sometimes they are installed as buried cables.

Just driven past and seen the sensor lines. I'll keep careful now.
