Default Re: How long to pass a car?

problem with scamera vans and bikes is that they need to catch your registration number either using recognition or video cameras.

good news is that they cant get you from the front and only the rear.

i think they only take "snap shots" at certain points to generate the speed record otherwise the cameras would be recording every single vehicle in a line of traffic all at once, thats a lot of data.

so they cant record your speed until they can recognise your number plate, so bikes can only be recorded with "rear" facing cameras/recognition but these also have to be tied in with the "front" ones to prove that you were speeding before hand.

i have passed a few scameravans overtaking and to this day nothing has ever come of it.
