I was just driving past this road on the A50 and I was driving towards the camera facing towards me. It's a 40MPH road I was going 43ish on my speedo. I'm not sure if this camera is directed towards my direction or if its for the opposite traffic.
Here's the Link. https://www.google.com/maps/@52.6706327,-1....3312!8i6656 All I know that it's a PEEK camera. Thanks. |

It looks like a Truvelo front facing speed camera.
You can clearly see the 3 white corroboration lines on your side of the road. This post has been edited by peterguk: Fri, 27 Apr 2018 - 14:58 -------------------- |

43 on your speedo is likely to be a real world 40, so I don't think it's likely you would have triggered it.
Yes they flash. |

Or are they suppose to flash? 43 on your speedo is likely to be a real world 40, so I don't think it's likely you would have triggered it. Yes they flash. Curious would I have seen the flash or is it ones of those Infa-Red ones? Also why do they look like PEEK Cameras? This post has been edited by sonnyred1: Fri, 27 Apr 2018 - 17:15 |

They are meant to flash through a filter so as not to dazzle you, but you would still see it.

Curious would I have seen the flash or is it ones of those Infa-Red ones? Also why do they look like PEEK Cameras? There aren’t any infra-red ones flashing in the UK. Rest easy, it would only trigger at speeds of 46mph (48-50 on most speedos) so you were a long way from that. -------------------- There is no such thing as a law abiding motorist, just those who have been scammed and those yet to be scammed!

The flash will have had a purple/red tinge, if had fired.
