• Red light Camera;Court proceedings; Advice please 5 May 2011 (Forum)
  Around 15m further there was a further pair of traffic lights that were also red. My instant reaction was that these were also part of the exit cameras and I went through them. as I did the camera flashed. I now realise that these second set of cameras, 15 metres after turning left, were an automated pedestrian crossing. (automated because on the other side of the carriageway they acted as the STOP sign for  the crossroads)   So although these lights had been red for 5.5 seconds, I had actually only seen them after turning  left, so only for a fraction of this time, and in addition was temporarily confused by the number of lights on, having just gone through green and facing red.

• Spray-on number plate disguise 14 Jan 2005 (Forum)

• Gatso Loophole 7 Apr 2003 (Forum)

• Speeding (mostly excl cameras) Vol 46 6 Sep 2006 (Forum)
  it wasn't the case when I was done 8 months ago in Milton Keynes). I have no idea what type of cameras are used in Oxford, but on the assumption they're GATSO's then this evidence would be taken from behind and would purely prove the speed of the car rather than who was driving - correct? Can I ask for photographic evidence to show who was driving?

• Gantry message numpties 8 Mar 2016 (Forum)
   Don't the numpties that operate these message boards have cameras to see what's going on? Do they not have contact with patrols?  So often they seem to fail to switch off the advisories when the problem has long since resolved.  Does anyone out there have any knowledge of why the gantry service is so often stupidly incompetent?
