Mind your SPECS (read it and save points)
#1
Apologies if this has already done the rounds on this forum but it's worth repeating for those who may have missed it.
The SPECS speed detection system has gone live on the M4 between J12 and J15 (both directions). It is activated at 78mph. It is not detected by RADAR detectors as it isn't radar based and relies on digital recording of your index over two fixed points. No flashing light in your rear view mirror to warn you that you've been caught just a FPN through your letter box. Don't speed at any time between the junctions.
Good luck...

New M4 Road Gantry Signs
The Highways Agency has installed new signs between J 12 and J 14 of the M4 as part of a year long pilot project to reduce congestion and collisions. The signs have two CCTV cameras. One which monitors the sign itself to make sure its working and displaying the right message; and another to monitor the congestion to evaluate the effect the sign is having on the traffic.
There are NO speed cameras and NO SPECS cameras in the signs!
The only involvement Thames Valley Police has is to change the messages on the signs according to the conditions to give up-to-date information. This is done via our control room. The signs are owned by the Highways Agency.
There is detailed information about the project on the Highways Agency website. Please follow the link below or call them on 0845 955 6575.
