Has anyone else noticed the new type of long range speed cameras, which I am assuming are digital.
The latest one I have seen is on the A21, having struggled in the traffic on the single carrage way from the coast with a breif buzz at Flimwell, then being given a glimps of clear road at the pembry bypass, you rejoin the single road nightmare just past Tunbridge Wells.
Finally to be presented with what you know are miles of nice smooth fast dual carriage way as you pass the Tonbridge turn off, up the hill pulling all the way with the car beneath you going, go on MORE, you crest the hill, switch to the outside lane so as not to be hampered by the filtering traffic, and there before you stretches the road, egging you on, saying go on, exactly how much faster is it to 100 down hill, no one is looking I wont tell......................
STOP, WRONG just as you come down the hill, On the other side of the dual carriage way is a camera hidden by a Sign and I only noticed this because I thought it strange that a speed camera had a long lense attached and was facing the wrong way, it was only after looking at the camera a couple of times I realised it was a camera on my side of road (heading towards Tunbridge Wells) to catch speeding motorists on the other side of the carriage way (heading to M25 coming down the hill from Southborough). So be warned if you use this stretch of the A21 they are getting sneaky with the cameras!!!
Are there any other cameras hidden around Sussex, Kent etc for us to look out for,.....er for decoration interests only as I obviously always keep to the speed limit .......officer.
