The cameras in UK are strictly enforced in miles per hour and many modern cars come from parts of Europe that have slightly higher speed limits in KM per hour with many cars optimized for this and there are many improvements that could be made to the approaches.
First of all there should be railings to prevent pedestrians from stepping off the curb on the approaches where drivers will be driving with there eyes on the dial and not the road. I have experienced a dog running out at a mobile camera location that would have been stopped by railings. If they are going to be enforced we want the railings for sure and they will have no finance related excuses for failing to install them and also no overtaking/parking lines painted on the road.
There is only a limited jaywalking law on major highways in the UK.
Now that enforcement has been tightened up I would advise that nobody crosses a road within 100 yards of a speed camera as drivers whom have already had a ticket will be looking at dials and will be distracted as badly as if they had a phones welded to the sides of there faces.
The main point of this thread is to let everybody know that the old cabinets are being recycled with new strict enforcement equipment of the type that is inside the newer shiny units with big round LED flashes while using the old flash guns. The only way to tell is to get out of the vehicle and look for the trench scar where the ADSL cable has been laid.
