Question Camera Car on A644 Dewsbury?

Did anyone see a Police MPV on the A644 (Huddersfield Road) on the way out of Dewsbury this morning (Around 7.45am)
The guy was parked on the central reservation sat looking out of the back with the tailgate open looking at a Laptop screen, I couldn't see a camera anywhere (Wasn't going too fast to notice either ) and I am just curious as to what they were doing

Probably ANPR. Nothing to worry about if you're taxed, MOT's and insured.

With the speed guns, don't they actually have something outside the car/van though and a "Police Presence" etc?

As Dave says the tailgate open and laptop is tax & general dodgyness....thankfully.

Keep your eyes on the link below, worth checking at the beginning of each week, although it's not been done for this week yet it's normally bang up to date...and plan your route accordingly

Normally the speed ones are vans painted up as opposed to cars.

ANPR usually have a Police presence as they have one car scanning and often another 2 at least, and even some bikes or vans to do the pulling. sCamera's don't need additional enforcement as the pic is enough to generate the NIP. If they're using an older radar or non-recording device they either pull you or radio ahead for additionals to pull you. I think !
