Heh, it must be 1st April

Oh a technical note: all non-attended scams need a method of corroboration, regardless of the accuracy of the primary sensor.

Forward facing cameras usualy don't have road markings anyway.

There is no such thing as "high accuracy" when it comes to measuring the speed of traffic. There are to many variables.

.

Truvelos do -,first a buried grid, then 3 lines very close together ---the grid of three lines gets 2 readings of speed, the lines are second corroboration - as per the "PHOTO OF YOU "

Surely all those cameras aimed at oncoming traffic are discriminatory ? Motorcycles don't require front number plates and thus many riders just safely ignore them.
