Since the camera has the ability to detect speed it will be able to determine if the tailgating is in traffic or normal driving conditions. The fact it has a generator implies to me it will be stationary otherwise it would run off of the vehicles electrical systems, and as it looks easy as hell to break I guess it will be accompanied by police presence. Although if thats the case wouldnt it just be easier to have an officer in a patrol car with camera and using his discretion......
Doubtless these will be replacing the current transit vans that sit around a blind corner in an area with dubiously marked speed limits on roads that should by definition have a higher speed limit... (I got done doing 36 in a 30 it was between to villages on a A road that was empty dry and not at all twisty, but they kept the 30 limit in place for 5 miles between the villages even though there was no habitation, came round a corner and there was a mobile camera fair enough I was over the limit but the limit IMO wasn't the right one for the road 40 would have been more sensible.....
Its always 30 for a reason.
No ifs no buts there will always be a reason for it being a 30.
There has to be as it has to be justified by governing bodies.
If you had killed somebody at that 36mph, god forbid, and they prove it which they usually do its prison I'm afraid!
There is a road near me, from Kingston Blount to a 50 limit just before Chinnor which is a 30 but there is a couple of houses and a pub set back on a blind bend.
I always thought it was wrong as its really difficult to keep to the limit.
But if you look at the wider picture and take another look at the road there will be a reason.
In this case its the pub which is difficult to exit.
On another note, I would welcome a couple of those in my village to stop all the Corsa and Fiesta boys screaming around usually up my arse trying to race me!
Don't get me wrong, yes I am old, I was the same in my Metro 1.3L but the cameras are always in the wrong place!
Over and out and don't shout at me!
