So they are invisible?

what's the difference between 'truvelos' and the other cameras. they appear to be growing like triffids.

The are triggered by driving over inductive loops in the road (hidden wires) so no radar to detect.

See the speedtrapbible.

OK Floyd. Please please confirm that these 'inductive loops' are under the 3 white painted lines just before the camera, if not i may be in a whole heap of trouble!

Not all are live yet, those near Wilstead arand I believe the ones at the Bedford end of the dual carrioageway are too. The one at Luton, just off the barton Cutting is not yet working, or wasn't two weeks ago.
Hope you don't get done.
