I think if it flashes once it's running a system check .. Two flashes are fixed distance for prosecution

Flashing the car going the other way. And if it's a 50 zone I'd expect the camera to allow at least 57mph before flashing.

Years ago I was driving down the A556 from Manchester at an indicated 50mph.

The speed camera on the dual carriageway in Mere flashed me twice and I was like "wtf?"

Nothing ever came through the post
