Speed camera vans - Dicky - 06-03-2014
Anybody notice these at stupid o'clock in the night lately?!
00:10 I think I get caught by one doing 38 in a 30
In 3 years of driving I've never seen one out after 7pm
RE: Speed camera vans - Strikeforce - 06-03-2014
Yep seen a few recently at late times
Just hope you get a speed awareness course
RE: Speed camera vans - Dicky - 06-03-2014
Haven't long been on one pal -_-
RE: Speed camera vans - Strikeforce - 06-03-2014
Gutted
I had one in jan this year
Hope i dont slip up again as i dont fancy the points
RE: Speed camera vans - Dum-Dum - 06-03-2014
No, I've never seen them late at night either, will have to keep my eyes peeled.
RE: Speed camera vans - laurence_13 - 06-03-2014
They've got new cameras now that work in low light... Never seen one out after 10 though.
RE: Speed camera vans - Piggy - 06-03-2014
Makes sense, because there are so many school runs and kids out playing at midnight!?
What a waste of resources.
RE: Speed camera vans - Mattcheese31 - 06-03-2014
Passed one last night at 8pm, everyone always flashes each other round here though

That proves the effectiveness of the course then!

There's one round here that parks up in the middle of a dual carriage way towards the motorway trying to get people doing the 34 in a 30 thing, yet people drag race outside my window at 1am easily breaking national speed limit and nothing
RE: Speed camera vans - Dum-Dum - 06-03-2014
Ours only seem to park on NSL roads and IMO they should f*ck off and park outside schools or Tesco or something.

Did my 'Speed awareness course' so I'm now very aware of my speed.
RE: Speed camera vans - lolsteve - 06-03-2014
Aye that's the bastard. Gutted you got caugth, although good thing was only a speed aware course
RE: Speed camera vans - Pete - 06-03-2014
My fault though it was a 40 and I was wondering why everyone was pottering along in the left lane at 30, rushing between jobs
RE: Speed camera vans - ozonehostile - 07-03-2014
i got caught by a van on the way to do silverzx' bosch conversion last month, cheeky bastard was hidden in a bus stop on the inside of a really long left hander on dual carriageway. theres this 1 mile stretch of 50 limit past some houses which are completely fenced off from the road anyway.....
speed awareness course for me today :p
and i haven't seen any vans out late, but there has occasionally been a cop car pulled over on the main route through town with a radar gun, about 11pm last time i saw
RE: Speed camera vans - Mattcheese31 - 07-03-2014
if they're hiding you can report them, it's not against the law for them to hide but if they get caught doing it they lose all revenue for their constabulary (that year iirc) for camera fines . . . .
Speed camera vans - Razorback_Rob - 07-03-2014
I've never seen them past 8ish I don't think. Saw a couple today in the usual spots but very rarely there. Was gonna say Zakk has one today but he beat me to it :p
RE: Speed camera vans - Poodle - 07-03-2014
Yeah, seen these out and about after ten pm recently, bastards.
RE: Speed camera vans - kirstinmuircroft - 11-03-2014
Seen two today so far
One in the early hours, like 2 or 3am and one at around 2pm
RE: Speed camera vans - THE_Liam - 11-03-2014
Never used to see them round here, but suddenly one has started parking on the main road off my street early on a morning when I'm taking the missus to work, keep worrying I'll sleepily speed past it...
