Whilst down in the South over the weekend, I came across an unnerving number of cameras, the likes of which I haven't seen before.
They were on the A14 and facing oncoming trafic, with white lines right across the road, rather than the staggered dash-lines with the usual GATSOs.
I guess that ,as they are facing the traffic, that they don't flash, and looked like they had some sort of Infra-red sensor on them.
Can anybody enlighten me as to how these work ,and when you know you've been got?!
I know I went past a couple at 'enthusiastic' speeds, but not way over the limits.
I am a bit concerned that my trip might have cost me more than a couple of tanks of juice!
Cheers
