Speed Cameras: The Jury's coming back in! 17 Apr 2011 (Forum)
We have been told that "the war against the motorist is over". We have been told that whole areas are having their speed cameras removed. Over the next year or 2, we are surely going to get lots of information about accident rates before and after the presence of speed cameras. What do we predict will happen? I don't mean just to accident rates; how will the advocates of speed cameras, who cited speed cameras as a means of reducing accidents, adjust their position (assuming they're prooved wrong of course!). -
Average Speed Camera Fines 11 Nov 2010 (Forum)
Has anyone on this forum EVER received a fine for exceeding the average speed limit imposed with cameras. Because it appears more and more vehicles are being driven far faster than the speed limits set, even with the threat of cameras. -
M25 Cameras 19 Apr 2002 (Forum)
Does anyone konw if the cameras on the variable speed section of the M25 actually work? As anyone got a ticket from driving around this section? The lower speed limits appear to be generally ignored and there are only one or two cameras in this section that I've ever seen actually flash. -

Fiat Panda - Speed camera in Van 17 Feb 2011 (Forum)
If the camera had caught me it would have been filming across the flow of traffic coming the other direction. I think the cameras are more likely to film cars on the same side of the road as them. I think it more likely this van was filming those entering the 30mph limit. -

How do these cameras actually work? 23 May 2007 (Forum)
Son and I were strolling into town the other day and we pondered a shiny yellow camera. I daydreamed that Captain Gatso would appear to no avail. Now there were two little holes facing one way and on the other side what appeared to be a flash unit and camera. Correct me if I am wrong but it seems that you are monitored approaching the camera and photographed after you have passed by. -
Speed Camera Thread - Volume 49 [Read Only] 18 Oct 2009 (Forum)
I don't really have a problem with covert cameras to be honest. In fact, I think the use of a covert camera would more accurately reflect the negative attitude to speed limits by drivers. When approaching overt cameras, all that happens is that speeding drivers brake on approach, then speed up again after. -

Position of traffic signal cameras 1 Nov 2009 (Forum)
I may be being paranoid but I'm not very familiar with traffic signal cameras - are they normally positioned so that they take a photo of the back of your car? And if it was a speed camera as well would that be the same? I'm wondering whether this camera flashed because it caught someone going the other way running a light... -
