Active Speed Cameras in the South West...

[GMS 500]

Similar to the undercover police car thread...
Which Gatso spots have you seen people getting flashed at?

Outland road in Plymouth definately work as a guy I work with got 6 points in one week ...

The ones on the flyover at avonmeads, never on.
A4 just past Saltford at the bottom on the hill, always on.
In Wick just past the church, always on.

Alot of the others now, like the one on Hotwells rd & on the hill heading up towards Kingswood are the newer type & the snoop doesnt pick them up, ive seen them flash though.

The camera on the traffic lights at Whiteladies Road / Tyndalls Park (in Bristol) works. In fact I've seen it flash every single car going through when the lights are green !

Monitrons can be set up to act as red light cams and as speed cams on the green phase.

Gits.

Monitrons are operated by wires in the road so there is no radar for the snoop to detect...

I was wondering about this, they look like skinny Gatso's, I know definately Truvelo's operated from wires in the road & face forwards. Monitrons though I wasnt sure about.

We dont have any Truvelos around the Bristol area do we? I've never seen any.

[GlenMH]

I have not seen a Truevelo in the Bristol area - Hampshire have got loads though.

This was knackered, every single car got flashed. Even as they pulled away slowly when the lights changed. Would be interesting to know if they all got something through the post.

A4 Bath rd by RSPCA are normally on & I know a few people that have been caught by that one, its so easy to do 35+ if its clear heading down hill.

A4 Bath rd up by Halfords & McDonalds, never seen that one flash.

Is that the one by Bristol Honda? If so, I have personal experience of that one flashing

I treat them all as active.

Especially the one in France that Joe, Robin and I went through at 155mph.

Thats the one!

The Gatso on at the bottom of the hill going into Pensford is usually on.

The one on Exeter St in Plymouth caught me out last year. No excuse, as it's a 30 zone.
