Yep, they are about half a mile from my house on the main Nottingham Ringroad and on the A610 where is crosses the ring road.

Just reading EVO which says doubt is cast on the legality of the new Spec cameras (the ones which monitor your speed over a set distance, decide if you are speeding & take a frontal photo of you in the car)
Artical says that because Motorbike drivers cannot be "done" by these type of cameras due to the fact that bikes have no front numberplate & the rider has a helmet on & is therefore un-identifiable - this means the cameras discriminate against car drivers vs motorbike drivers & experts are saying that this contravenes European Laws on human rights.

I HATE these!

There's a new set installed, (though I don't know if they are live yet) on the A1 between Edinburgh and Haddington.

If you're up here - BE WARNED!!!
