Drove past a new speed camera site today, truvelo i think it was called. Camera faces the on coming traffic, I get that, but the calibration lines start AFTER the camera :confused:

How's that work then?

Mikey :cool:

It's obviously bi-directional.

Ther're the clever little buggers that the lines on the road are within a foot. They give very little time to react plus they get a photo of the mug driving :rolleyes:

I saw some of these yesterday in Chesterfield too, dont worry mikey you aint the only :confused: by it :D

The lines after the speed camera are there to fool you, look closely at the road BEFORE the camera you will see four small lines which arent noticable from a distance.
Be carefull peeps
Doc

On a road near me - typical open A road - easy travelling - they have installed 8!! new Gatso cameras - however there are no lines on the road, put just past each camera is a sensor wire in the road a few feet apart - you can see where they have slot cut the carriageway to fit the wires........

How's that work then - I thought all gatso's had to have the painted lines?

p.s - I've never yet seen them work....in fact I rip past one in particular every day:)

Sounds like those two new 'uns on Notts Road, Ilson. :(

They're Truvelos alright. Got the sensor strip in front but more curiously calibration lines used with Gatsos behind.

That SPECCS system looks like a right b*^@tard to me...!

Yup, all around Long Eaton now and University Boulevard have suddenly sprouted a few!! Feckin things.

Cheers dudes,

So basically if you are slowing down for the lines, it's too late :(

I reckon that you could do 'em for entrapment there ;) what's the point of the lines if it's not to simply deceive eh?

Mikey :cool:

Time to stock up on scrap tyres and a can of petroleum spirit(in case i run out of petrol of course ;))

ps I got the you-know-what fitted ;)

scchtum for now chapper but I'll let ya know how well its working ;)
