oxygene Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Just been reading http://www.speedcam.co.uk/gatso6.htm There are new cameras in bristol, which look like the helmet of the Terminator (the film character, not Phil 'Termi') which are digital and link directly back to the police transmitting pictures in 5 seconds approx. Not sure if its been raised on here before but thoguht i would post up just in case. By the way anyone who uses the A38, mobile speed traps now operating near Rolls Royce plant and all the way up towards Horfield and Aztec West, I possibly got busted by one last night. Road Angel said I was doing 46mph in a 40mph zone, hope I havent been busted. There is also one or more of the Monitron cameras on the same stretch of road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxygene Posted January 25, 2006 Author Share Posted January 25, 2006 Just found this on another site - http://www.safecam.org.uk/general_information/technical.aspx RedSpeed speed and red light digtal cameras This equipment is fully digital - and does not require the use of film. The cameras - both speed and red light - are activated by a loop embedded in he road surface and will take three pictures. The first and second photographs will show the movement of the vehicle, either for speed or red light offences, and the third is a close up of the vehicle to determine the make/model, colour and registration number. The time and date, speed or red light time will all be recorded with each image. These images are down loaded direct to the viewing office for processing via a standard ADSL line. This equipment was type approved by the Secretary of State in May 2003 for detecting speed and red light offences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
