Either wasn't flashing at you or you weren't doing 25.

either your speedo or the camera made a mistake.

if the camera made a mistake you wont get a fine as the pics will show you werent speeding

if your speedo is wrong, you might get a fine

i dont know which is more likely

I wouldn't worry too much, Shaun & I once saw a bus get flashed by a camera that was literally just pulling off from the bus stop, those things can be quite daft with their flashy timings!

Was there something on the other side of the road that might of triggered the camera? Used to do it a lot on the Wolverhamton Road in Oldbury when someone was speeding on the other carriageway.

Few times I've thought I had been flashed and its turned out to be a reflection off a sign or something.

Something my mate does in his car to a couple of mates when we're going down a few lanes with cameras on... just as it's starting to get dark ,angle headlights up a bit, quick flash. Other person panics and doesnt realise they've just been flashed.

Pretty amusing Wink
