francis Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 On my usual run from London to Northamptonshire today I notice they've put up some speed averaging cameras both ways around junction 3-6 (I think) - not on road works, just on the deretricted motorway. Anyone know anything about these? If this is the way things are going to go I may as well trade in for the Prius now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Boy Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 On my usual run from London to Northamptonshire today I notice they've put up some speed averaging cameras both ways around junction 3-6 (I think) - not on road works, just on the deretricted motorway. Anyone know anything about these? If this is the way things are going to go I may as well trade in for the Prius now I thought the roadworks were there whilst the average speed camera stretch was being put in, hows it feel at 70mph then? Think it 40mph while they were putting them in, that was unbareble! Notice how some people think it's ok to speed through and just slow down for the cameras:wtf: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francis Posted April 8, 2007 Author Share Posted April 8, 2007 Yeah I'm well used to the 40mph road works stretch, but these ones are new to me. It's funny seeing some people nail it through, but perhaps they're switching lanes between cameras? I made the stupid mistake of taking the single lane stretch, and of course someone had had an accident and it took ages to clear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I thought speed averaging wasn't legal. Saw stuff on TV that implied this. Wrong????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham S Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I thought speed averaging wasn't legal. Saw stuff on TV that implied this. Wrong????? I think I saw that too, was a case of switching lanes was enough to fool it if I remember right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
