HADEC 3 and Average speed camera. M62

[AHD]

Hi All new to forum.

I was on my bike last night on the M62 and was nearly taken off. I was being tail gated for a while by a van for some time. I kept filtering and making him the person infront of me’s problem. I was then in the outside line on the motorway and a Van took the gap to the right of me (in command position and the central reservation), I had to take evasive manoeuvre as I truly believed he was going to knock me off deliberately. I tried to keep close enough to get his reg but that meant I was probably pushing my luck speed wise through the average speed camera and hadec 3 zone. So the question. Do forward facing cameras pinch us? And do HADEC 3 systems. I wasn’t being daft here. I was (am) still pretty shaken by it and just wanted his reg. Which I’ve got an it’s now with police.

Does anyone know of any biker who has been caught with HADEC 3 and/or average speed cameras?

Todays healdlines, white van driver drives like twat...

Think about your behaviour prior to the incident. YOU could have prevented this situation ocurring by allowing faster following traffic to overtake.

So at the point where he was tailgating you. If someone is tailgating you on the motorway, you should almost certainly be at least one more lane to the left.

Instead you got red mist about being overtaken by a van and kept filtering away from him, then letting him catch up with you. I bet he was absolutely raging by the time he finally managed to get past you.

Another thing to consider.. If he's in a van and is willfully speeding through a camera controlled average speed zone, what do you think the chances of the van being registered in his name are?

I was surprised too, as it's the received wisdom, but I can't find it.

My theory test had plenty of questions that weren't from the Highway Code - it doesn't mention the environmental benefits of trams, for one thing.

The inherrent problem with the M62 (and the current 30 limit on the M621) is at buisy times every lane is a tailgate queue. It's an arse on sliproads onto the buisy sections as there's often an insufficient gap for joining traffic.

From what I recall all the speed cameras through the leeds/bradford section capture the front of vehicles. But there are CCTV monitoring cameras that may be used to cross reference unidentifiable vehicles.

It used to be the case that 10% +2mph was the threashold, but I think that has gone out of the window. There's certainly enough talk in south yorkshire about the M1 being zero tolerence.

Generous threasholds don't seem to apply in south yorkshire any more. I had an entertaining and expensive afternoon of realising just how many motorists don't know how to determine the speed limit in a national speed limit done after getting caught just over the brow of a hill doing a mighty 42 in a 40 by a scamra van that was buisy commiting a statutory and absolute offence of displaying flashing amber lights when not authorised to do so. Me? Angry much?
