truman Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I've been through that section several times when no speed limit has been set and seen people going 90+ without being flashed. The same is true for the M25 sections I have travelled on. There's no consistency then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biotechpete Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 There's no consistency then... Quite possibly, perhaps that's why many police forces are declining to say whether or not the limit is enforced, because they do so as a when they feel like it (or are short of cash).

alchresearch Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I've been through that section several times when no speed limit has been set and seen people going 90+ without being flashed. The same is true for the M25 sections I have travelled on. I think they're set to 85, there was something in the news a year or so ago about the gantry speed cameras on the M62.

nomoney Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 These cameras do not have a bright flash and you would not notice it,they are not like the ones in towns,the ones on the side gantry do not flash,going to London one early morning around 00.2 oclock in a new ford van,when the interio lite up blue looked to my right and it was a police car looked at my speedo and i was doing 85mph.looked back and put up my hand to say sorry,and they drove off,goes to show some can be compleate ******** and some are not,but still do not trust them.

Robbie Loving Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I remember driving to London once and it was flashing pretty much every car that went through, I was doing around 75mph, so thought I could have been hit. When driving back the next day it was still flashing loads, so think it was just faulty as nothing came through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclone Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Quite possibly, perhaps that's why many police forces are declining to say whether or not the limit is enforced, because they do so as a when they feel like it (or are short of cash). Police forces don't get the cash, so that last suggestion is unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
