Heading north today and saw the same cameras. Specs alright, but no current limit in the immediate area. Also an empty specs post there, so they may be moving the roadworks to that area. Least I hope so as I was doing a bit going through the first camera!
Hope they are not working.......yet

If there is more than one lane open, just keep switching lanes before each camera

It's a smart old computer, numptie If it sees you in one lane and then it sees you in another lane, it still knows its seen you!

Better just to tailgate lorries and vans passed the scameras so it can't see you at all

I thought they were not type approved to nab cars changing lanes

Whoa there....
that site has actually got some info WRONG!!
I'm in Notts. and that site says the A610 is 40mph - NO, it's a 30!!!
Ring road is 40mph NOT 30!
A46 is NOT 40 -50 mph, it's 60mph - single carriageway with a National limit sign!
Not sure which part of the A52 has a 40 mph limit, but the bit near me with the SPECS is a National speedlimit dual carriageway - therefore 70mph in a car!

E-mail them and highlight the errors then, they do respond and are quite helpful.

I e-mailed them some years back when the Specs hoax e-mails were doing the rounds and got a human reply
