Hi always wondered if average speed cameras can get motetbikes?? They scan front numberplate and obv bikes don't have them.

One can assume not,

I think bikes are ok, as you say no front plate, but get seen too many times in the same place I'm sure an unmarked car will be hanging around.

a mate told me that the law can not use the data to convict anybody, its just used for data logging... hum. im not sure if he is correct tbh, anybody on here know for sure?

I would be inclined to believe the above but am not advocating speeding!

The reason I say this is the amount of times I have been overtaken through them idicates someone knows something I dont!!!

No I know someone who got speeding ticked on m1 from average cam... As usual no road workers were actually there

There is about a half mile bad bend section of the M60 that has these average speed cameras and I have been overtaken that many times that I thought they can't work and these 'regulars' obviously know it but I since know a couple of people who have received the usual paperwork and a fine and points for going over the 50 mph limit. I still get overtaken regularly but just smile deviously at there cockiness ( it is a bad bend! )

im not one for pelting between them, but the amount of times i have been overtaken by some nutter as rob says do they know something that we dont, but interesting that someone has actually been done between one...

In a 50mph limit on roadworks on the A1 between Dishforth and Leeming bar, I was being overtaken by trucks.........

People `in the know` will know which are working and which aren`t. Apparently it`s only a small percentage that actually work at one time

Oh and just one more thing for 2 wheeled road warriors to get away with

alcazar, car speedos are not always 100% accurate. In a hgv they are spot on and get calibrated periodically. I overtake loads of cars in these areas at work doing bang on 50 . Also consider the foreigner hgv drivers dont give a toss as plod isnt going to chase them up for £60 when theyre back in bulgaria
