Speed van opposite side of dual carriageway

Will2911

• I was on a dual carriageway way A road earlier, which has been put down to 40mph due to road works, my speedometer was showing 52-55mph, I know I shouldn't have been doing it.....

On the opposite side of the dual carriageway is a pavement which had a speed van on it, from research the camera is in the side of the van. I only noticed it late, and tried to slow, but not sure if I slowed in time.

Both sides of the road were busy, however I was in lane 2 when I passed, which would be nearer the van.

I am not sure if it can get both sides of the carriageway where it was, or if the operator could only get his side, as such.


Another point is that when I went back a few hours later the same van had been moved to cover the opposite carriageway, the one I had driven on earlier, to me this implies that it only covers one half of the dual carriageway at a time, would that be a fairly safe bet? Meaning it wouldn't have picked me up earlier on?

Thanks

It can capture all lanes, and indeed anything within 1,000 metres.

I would like to say that today is day 14. The postman has been and gone and no NIP.

So hopefully I am in the clear.

However from now on I will be sticking firmly to the limit.

Can't go through that again

Yes and have been since 2018, I know that pitfall and it doesn't apply to my case

Good for you, leave the speeding to us boomers who have the balls to sit and wait the 14 days without jumping on a forum.
