police roadside speed camera's

im sure i past one earlier doing 37 in what i think was a 30 im hoping it was a 40 but just wondering if anyone else got caught by one of these and did you get away with it for some reason or did you get fined/penalty points?

was it just off the fly over just before the 40 ?

I've only ever been caught by the mobile cameras mate.

They are a nightmare as they can literally pick you up from mile saway.

jinks it's no good worrying about it mate i thought i got caught 3 times lately when i was going just under 40 but f**k all has come of any of them! all 3 times it did my fuckin head in all day

ive had £60 fine and 3pts off one!

i got done 2 weeks ago doing 36 in a 30 zone, and my missus got done doing 34 in a 30 zone

what fine/points did you get?

I got off. Check the criteria on the web regards where the mobile vans are allowed as this must be a designated entry zone (ask to see the evidence of the number of incidents that must have occured over a given peiod of time). There has to have been so many crashes/fatalaties etc to warrant where they are located. They must put speed camera signs up within x amount of miles prior to entering the designated point where the camera is located. The mobile van must be liveried and visible to the oncoming motorist. I am sure there is more but keep being persistent and request a picture of the van to confirm livery and documented evidence that the van they say was liveried was logged at that location. There comes a point when it is not cost effective for them to keep responding. Best of luck

when did they let you know?

within a couple of days a week at most, then yopu have a month to tell them who was driving, then they send you the summons, then you have to send your licence off with payment


i am a bit late getting the 1st bit off by a couple of days

i got flashed doing 34 in a 30( driving a service bus ) and was offered to go on an awareness course for £85 instead of £60 fine and 3 points.

Only if you havent got any previous convictions for speeding.

i was caught doing 36 in a 30. by a camera that was a simple white van you would normaly see on the street. all that was different was it has police on the doors.

i was offered a speed awerness course, they took ages to tell me that they haddnt recieved my information. They sent me a letter it was basicly saying reply back or we will file for 3pts and £60.....rang them ...told me they had recieved it and the letter was sent in error

for all them delays i had to complete the course within a certain date so had to drive to neath and spend 4 hours listenin to a guy talking about speed,idenftying speed in areas with no speed limit signs.

its based on a few things

the speed you where caught doing.

the amount of people caught around the time you where

any some other things i cant remeber.

if you not been asked to go on awareness course write off to them, that you would like to attend a course

It was my first offence and i was caught with the GUN.... i had contemplated a challenge of the offence and asked to have the Gun Callabrated as if it is out in the slightest notch they have to drop the charge, however my Tachograpgh at the time of the offence i was doing 38mph so on that note i am happy to take the course.
What annoys me though is i was zapped about 200 Yards from joining the A1 which is at 50mph zone.
