Scamera...did it get me?

[Devils Advocate]

Just wondering if i got caught out today,here`s the scenario:.

Two way street with fixed speed camera on right hand side of road.Just past the fixed speed camera,same side of the road, there`s a layby and a scamera van is parked there. (so camera van is clocking vehicles from behind as they pass through the zone).

i`m on the opposite side of the road to the van and approaching the controlled zone,and riding over the limit too .....so my question is...is the van only clocking the vehicles on HIS side...or is he getting BOTH sides at the same time.

if he IS doing both sides of the road he wouldnt get my reg anyway coz i was approaching head on...but he wouldve seen i was speeding......so what do you think?Am i safe?what can happen?did he clock me?

I have no idea.

Just wait and see if you get a letter. Worrying changes nothing now.

What was your indicated speed at the time. If it was only say 35 in a 30, then chaces are you were only doing a real 30-32 so would be unlikely to get prosecuted. If you were doing an indicated 40+ then it's a little more dodgey.

Good chance you won't be done.
They can radar you from the front, across the lanes, then get your number plate as you go past.
But that'd mean they have to actually turn around for a start, which is quite a lot of work for someone paid to squeeze a trigger and move their arm a few cm either way, so they'd have to be in a pretty bad mood to go to all the effort .

I think I might have been flashed on a recent long night journey...

Whats the normal time to get a letter (if you are getting one) ??

I worried I'd been digi-shafted by the speed taxers a couple of months back. I reckon I was doing about 65 (indicated 71) JUST in a 50 on a dual carriageway. I looked up from the road after a curve, saw it facing me, then thought, ah well, it's already got me... I'll carry on. And to date, nothing has arrived on my doormat. I think G, with his head turny roundy suggestion, might be spot on there.

I knew about the 14 day thingy but have they bent the rules (obviously in their favour) with all the posties walking out and the mail being delayed?

for everyday the posties are on strike can you not just add another day to the 14 day rule?
