For all my german and ex-pat colleagues travelling into Switzerland down the german A5
Karlsruhe-Basel
The Swiss have just erected a hidden camera, on a gantry disguised as a light and mounted about 6m high over the Swiss Autobahn, immediately at the end of the FIRST tunnel (Schwarzwaldtunnel under the Basel Badische Bahnhof for those that know it) in Switzerland. It's 80kph limit and I was doing 85 (according to my digital porsche read out) and the damned thing flashed me, SO THE THRESHHOLD HAS BEEN SET DELIBERATELY LOW to catch all the unwary "furriners" who arrive in Switzerland. BEWARE!!!!and the damn thing is digital as well I've now found out, thats why it's so small!!!!
