30mph in a 30mp Zone Temporarily Reduced To 20mph For School

[Paul_]

Will a Gatso flash you for doing to 30mph speed limit on a 30mph road that has changed to 20mph with the flashing lights at a school?

I would have thought that they would be set to go off for vehicles travelling at over 30mph. As that will be the speed limit for the road most of the time.

Not sure they can program then to change from 30 to 20mph during specific hours of the day.

AFAIK if its a Green circle round the 20 on the sign its not legally enforceable as it doesnt conform to standard speed limit sign regulations.

So it remains 30mph max with a 20mph advisory during hours of most risk.

It just means paedos get longer to look at the children.

I have hired a car a few times when on business in the USA. I am 'relatively elderly' and definitely not a boy-racer type, but in general I did think the average USA driver was a slow coach

What I did note and respect over there was the way the road either side of a school is reduced speed limit AND that the majority of people obeyed the reduced limit. Sometime the limit was daytime only or just for specific times (flashing lights to indicate).

Personally I think it a good idea.

Thanks again for your replies chaps.

I know that if the limit was 20 that's what I should've been doing. Unfortunately though I wasn't. Does anyone know then if the limit of the road is 30 for all hours outside schools, will the speed camera change for the hours that the signs flash?
