They will never make it to somerset.
IIRC They are for the new digi speed cams to give an extra flash so the image comes out clearer.

They're the "police enforcement cameras" ANPR to check for tax mot etc I believeQuote:

yeah TM cams tend to be blue, and they arent really cameras anyway, just movement sensors
TM read the middle 4(IIRC) digits of a plate and 'tokenise' it. It shares the token with the rest of the TM network. That's how they know how fast traffic is flowing as they know how long it took your car to get from one point to another. They only take a number if digits instead of the full plate so they can't be accused of tracking/privacy invasion etc.Quote:

its got to be able to find the start or end of the plate to get the middle 4.... so its only a small code change to the infrastructure to not drop the start and end lol
