Average speed cameras and data collection

Most ANPR systems in the uk use the same technology and usually all made by PIPS technology http://www.pipstechnology.co.uk/
I have installed lots of Pips Spike and spike+ on lots of Uk motorways

The SPEC system has to be an automatic number plate system otherwise it wouldnt work ?

It does not however have access to the police national computer, it doest not give information markers, or have access to the MIB database, DVLA database and the many others the police use ? it only gives the number plate identifying the vehicle and the registered owner.

& then stores said data for the police to use at a later date should they require....

SPECS now SPECS 2 only reads the number plates, I dont think it has access to any database until any vehicles are caught and passed onto the relevnt safety camera policing team

Flang,
Are you suggesting that there are no fixed camera's on the motorway that do not automatically read the number plate, immediately check it against database and then refer to immediately to action?

Not to my knowledge theres no bandwidth on the current system to do this.
The police do run live sites which are connected to live databases. To my knowledge the Highways Agency do not.

There are ANPR cameras at the junctions on lots of motorways as you go on / off

& police come in. They tap in required reg number & all whereabouts of vehicle pops up with appropriate image with time & date stamp.

There's normally an ANPR site as you go into and out of Luton Airport. It uses the same style cameras as the London Congestion Charging zone uses, complete with the boxes (IR?) underneath the camera housing.

There's an unmarked white van and a 1/2 mile up the road a Beds Police 4x4 rangerover.

Im sure that's 'live' linked to many databases.
