Default Just got flashed on the M25

And I mean by a speed camera not an old bloke in a trench coat.

Bollox!

Feel better now, thanks.

It has, I was cruising along at just under or around 80. Must have been through 10 or so indicated on my Tom Tom thing, then flash. Bollox.

If I get a ticket it'll be the first I've had from a camera.

Has it got them everywhere? I travel from J12 to 14 and back every day. Most mornings the overhead gantries are displaying 40MPH, but most of the traffic is doing 50+. I've never been caught.

Along from M4 to A3 above gantries - not every gantry has them now - if you look you can see the grey boxes just peering over the top -I stick to 72 going along just in case and deff at the limits if they are showing up on the gantries

I always thought better to be safe than sorry

I had that at the beginning of December doing a real 81mph and I never heard a thing. It just seemed to go off for no reason

Fingers crossed I'll get the same, I liked the fact I'd only been caught by a policeman in the past.

It also happened to me last July at the bridges near Heathrow, doing just under 80 never received anything.

You might be luckly, the M25 is a very busy motorway and the camera may have run out of film or memory or what ever they us now!

I got flashed a few months ago,nothing came through. I can only think it had taken loads of pics, run out of film/memory and had no space for little old me!

Pheww!!!!

They seem to have a habit of doing that. I see them going off in the outside lane quite a bit when, the traffic in the middle lanes is moving faster (but not much over 70mph, if at all). I've also seen people doing what must be 90mph odd through them and not get flashed

Jeez, the last few times I've been on it, outside of the dead of night, I've been lucky to get over 12mph, let alone 120mph
