    Default New speed camera??

    I'm not sure.

    I remember driving to Sheffield years ago going along 'snake pass'... Came to a little town/village and their cameras were painted the same green as this, an positioned almost directly in bushes.

    But I swear speed cameras have to be brightly coloured and that's the law... If the law had changed then surely word would spread. I know they wouldn't shout about it but word would still spread...

    this was many years ago.... possibly before the law of having to make them visable.

    Don't suppose anyone knows how many are actually turned on in Norwich..? i've got to be really careful as already got 7 points, i've seen over 40 cop cars around here in the past week. Some sitting in bushes doing speed checks, some camera vans ( do they constantly check speeds or not ) and loads driving about pulling people. I got pulled by a police biker the other day for doing nothing wrong! they're everywhere ahhh its horrible.

    i have to repeat what brains said on that 1 buddy..... stick to the limit and no need to worry. they can pull you all they like, if you've done nothing wrong, nothing to worry about.
