Was on the new dual carriage way around Silverstone, nice road and they was a camera type thing on the side of the road, was like a speed camera type ish thing, but no flashes or square box and no marks on te road, but had a vellow square on it and it was facing towards you ????

Any ideas???

Truvelo.

Takes pic of you from the front so they can see who is driving.

Triggered by piezzo electric strips in road in front of it.

Uses white lines painted on road to confrim speed from the photo.

I live near there, Im assuming that you were on the A43 north about to come into Silverstone? If so you would have come done a dip on a bit of duel carriage way, gone past the Green Man Pub, crested the brow on a slight left hander and suddenly been faced with this camera. If it flashed then you've been had. Sorry

Although, I had some fun coming the other way with a certain Mr R. Burns in his road going Impreza a few years ago (have it on film) but thats another story altogether... ;-)
