Speed camera question
Discussion
When the policeman is stood, leaning over the roof of the car, with a hand-held device - is that likely to be recorded onto videotape, or will he just chase after people?
I may have been doing about 48 in a 40 (indicated), dual carriageway, through Trafford Park. Thing is that for most of it I couldn't see him as there was an articulated lorry between us, I reckon he would have had about 2-3 seconds to 'nab' me before I passed him. I think he was focussed on the lorry.
Worth worrying about? Here is the road in question:

What puzzles me is that I haven't ever heard of a serious accident at that point. I'd say that you could do about 60mph coming up the road (heading south, its a hill).
Yet just around the corner is the roundabout at J10 M60, which is notorious for motorists running the traffic lights on every single red phase. Pedestrians cross at these lights
He could also sit between the Asda and The Trafford Centre, which despite the presence of a pedestrian crossing has numerous pedestrians (mostly children tbh) running for their lives across a busy 40mph SCL.
