• The Speed Camera Thread - Volume 20 17 Apr 2004 (Forum)
  (Mods move this to the Speed thread if you must but so important that I put it here so that it is not missed). At the High Court today it was held that when Forms sent out after offence detected by camera to name driver etc then it has to be returned signed. The old loop hole of sending back
• Police Camera Action 9 Jan 2002 (Forum)

  came on, looked down to see it and  must have accelerated a shade as taking a quick peek to instrument panel just on the exit to a bend noticed mobile camera, camera pointing in my direction of travel. Checked dashcam footage after when home, recording 34mph. Do i feel lucky
• No more hidden speed cameras 20 Feb 2015 (Forum)
  a revenue-raising agenda. Mobile speed cameras will be "visible and for a limited duration, placed at different locations and with a prior warning sign. Fixed and mobile speed cameras will be visible, so that the posted speed limit sign is adhered to.... The ultimate objective is not the speeding ticket
• "Watchman" speed cameras 15 Sep 2008 (Forum)
  Does anyone know the legal status of the "Watchman" speed camera? I work in the Tameside area to the east of Manchester which is utterly infested with these things. They're painted all different colours, often green if they're among trees, carefully placed to be hard to see, and don't have
• The Speed Camera Thread - Volume 47 21 Sep 2007 (Forum)
  For the first time in years I drove into Lincoln on the A15, from Sleaford. As I drove North I saw at least a dozen sets of Gatso type road markings, in both lanes/directions, and some of them were numbered - numbers in the 40s. My camera warner gave no bleeps of any sort and there were no GATSOs
• HELP! Red light camera! 15 Apr 2005 (Forum)
  junction was coming out! I know I was a complete idiot and I deserve everything I get but what is my likely punishment as the traffic lights had a red light camera on them!! One of those digital ones that they have in Bristol. There are 2 lanes of traffic that this camera is monitoring, but I'm pretty sure
• Mobile Speed Cameras 22 Oct 2001 (Forum)
  Does anybody know the URL address where the Police publish the locations of their mobile speed cameras each week? By the way, what happens if you are "caught" by one which is not, for whatever reason, in its advertised place? I assume that you still collect the points and pay the fine, so
• Stingray cameras. What for? 18 Oct 2001 (Forum)
  Hello folks, Apologies if this has been discussed already but why are the Government spending so much on the new Stingray (dopey name) cameras, ostensibly to catch tax disc dodgers, when they already have this information at the DVLA. All registered cars are "registered": all cars registered
• Speed Camera Revenue 8 Mar 2001 (Forum)
  Instead of ploughing the revenue received from speed camera fines into more speed cameras why don't we start using technology to start clamping down on persistent offenders of other 'offences' such as tailgating and driving over the hashed lines at junctions in order to move swiftly from the middle

• Aids to avoiding speed cameras counter productive? 3 Jan 2008 (Forum)
  speed cameras operated at any given time. But that solution, created another problem. Before, I was contented to follow the limits, but with the Radar Detector, I started to speed up..... After a while I realised I was safer without it and it went into the back of a drawer somewhere. However, I have
• The Speed Camera Thread - Volume 27 7 Dec 2004 (Forum)
  It seems to me that speed cameras are regarded by some as a total panacea towards speeding control. Personally I felt there was nothing wrong with the friendly chat with the copper in the good old days that used to warn of an offence having been comitted but not necessarily follow up
• Speed Cameras/Cloned cars 7 Aug 2001 (Forum)
  I raised a topic of Speed Cameras on 16 Jul about my car going through a speed camera when I and car were hundreds of miles away. I got some interesting replies suggesting 'cloning' was widespread. I wrote to police and asked for evidence etc. Did not reveal my alibi as next time may not be able
