Variable speed limit M25
Do the variable speed limit camera on the M25 actually take pics
Got a little carried away following so other bikes filtering under the 40mph restriction  Has anyone been done by the cameras before? |

10 years ago you could see them twinkling away in the evening as they took pictures, but they have changed the technology - infra red flashes I think.

 A couple of months back going between 15 and 16, I saw the camera on the opposite side do the double flash as a rather fast moving car went through.

After running from J15 to J9 on a daily basis I feel confident to give a bit of advice here....
Between the A3 and M3 (J10-J12) almost (but not all) gantry's have cameras, so no more that 10mph over the posted limit max. From the M3 to the M4 (J15) I have only seen 1 camera. . |

I commute everyday and see cars zoom through at 80 and above so my guess is that a lot of them are not activated.
