A34 Just north of Milton...major "detection" exercise going on:

Saw two speed camera wagons (one over the Southbound on a bridge, the other parked up in a lay-by Northbound), two cars and at least 4 bikes on patrol on a 3 mile stretch...the bikes looked they were pulling the offenders over

Be careful out there

Question

Sure it's not a road tax set up?

If they are photographing speeders, there is no need to chase after them to pull them over....

Thanks for the heads up anyway.

Many many thanks for this!

Now you mention it, I followed 2 camera vans in the direction of the A34 this morning.

I assumed it was for speeding as I drove past at precisely 73mph ...maybe it wasnt, but the van on the bridge was the standard "extra windowed" variety, with what I think was some form of "speed kills" or similar notice on the side. The other looked like a standard transit with the rear doors open and quite a few coppers around it.

The bikers were zipping up and down, but admittedly I didnt see anyone pulled over as I came past.

Regardless of what they were pulling for, I wouldnt want to have come across them doing 95.

I slowed down as I am always paranoid about any van on a bridge!
