Average Speed Cameras

Viper_7

Just be sure to be right up along side a truck (very easy to accomplish) when you past the first check point - thus you are not seen. then foot down all the way...

however- I like them. People drive at a fixed speed.

I HATE...DETEST it when people overtake me..then !!!!!!!g slow down! I set the cruise control, and away, it's so clear when people cannot maintain a set speed and cause people
to brake/change lanes and thus generally cause the cascade of people braking that little bit harder until everyone is at a standstill!

Bring on Average speed Cameras covering the entire motorway network. 70MPH it will I'm sure increase traffic flow.

Has any one or does anyone know of any body who has been issued a ticket from an average camera ?

That was going to be my next question

Only on the roadwork ones - not heard of anyone getting done on the fixed ones.

I know exactly the speed cameras you mean on the A13 and tbh, they are a load of rubbish. The previous set up with the occasional GATSO to slow traffic down just before the junctions were perfectly acceptable. Now there's just a 3 lane bunch of people doing 48mph causing more congestion and frustration.

Oh yes - and they still brake hard at the cameras. Why?

Sadly, the cameras don't help with the problem of sloppy driving IME......certainly haven't increased traffic flow on the A13.
