Default police speed trap?

hi all

i was on the M1 yesterday and came accross a silver police car (had coloured squares) it was on one of the bridges over the motorway, it was a car not a van, but it had a white box on the roof with 3 holes it was pointing up the carriageway.

i cant find any pics on the net, does anyone know if it was a speed trap?

Never trust cars and vans on bridges!

Sounds like a number plate checking thing.

I was going up the M1 not long ago to EM Airport, at an extremely naughty speed and there was a Police X5 on one of the bridges above........must say I was slightly concerned during my holibubs, but nothing came of it.
