Come on Guys!
Of course, there are drivers with or without detectors who love to get the pedal to the metal:blink:
There may be ample signs to warn you that you arer approaching them BUT.... There are signs to let you know that speed reductions are ahead and, can you honestly say that you have reduced your speed to the 40 or 30 by the time you actually cross that imaginary boundary WITHOUT changing down or braking??:blink:
So, if; like me you pass the camera doing 32 or 43 that isnt speeding but it is still a £60 fine and points:sad2:
Its an increase in your next Insurance quote too:amazed:
I had one of these Inforad units (still in a drawer!!) not in this car though.
Travelling on the A1 to Canterbury from Wakefield for a Holiday it
would start to beep to warn of camera/s and also to indicate when passed their range??
At one point it beeped for in then out then, almost immediately; in again.It did this for several times
By the by, I wasn't unobservant either as there were NO indications of these 'traps' anywhere.
Do drivers buy these gadgets to defeat cameras and other devices? Yes, some do.
Others might decide that they are useful to try to prevent job loss?
In different parts of the country a driver might have a gadget of some kind like this only to be stopped and booked by a PO in an unmarked car that has followed him for at least the minimum required distance to get the dreaded reading.
There are traffic cameras in towns, on R/abouts and Mway bridges. so many places that it is a wonder that
any speeder gets away with it:amazed:
Though obvious speeders might get away with it time after time, others don't and whatever gadget one has it can only be observance of the limits that will continue to keep you a clean licence (in this matter anyway:bigsmile
If someone goes out and buys a speed camera detector or some kind of warning device does this tell you something about the driver?
Do you think it means that the driver is admitting he wants to speed and doesn't want to get caught, is he saying it is ok to speed or perhaps you might feel that the driver is just paranoid about accidentally exceeding the speed limit.
Also do you have a speed camera detector?
