No detector in car - how to find cameras for long trip?
Discussion
I'm picking up my new car in Cheshire on Saturday, and driving it to London. Want to use mix of Mway and A roads. Trouble is, haven't got a detector yet (will get once have car at home).
Is there a website that I can put the route into, and it'll simply list all the cameras on the way, that I can then print out? the only sites I can find either do it by county (and I can't print all them) or by pictorial maps, which won't work either. Any ideas? thanks!

1. Plan the route by most recent road atlas.. they give idea as to location of scams on the roads you might use
by placing a symbol on them. You not know exactly where.. but at least you know there ist a scam along them somewhere...
2. If a pal has a plug-in/play useful gadget... ask if you can borrow this for the journey home.. or the Sat Nav you take with you on country walks .. might also have this information
3. If the car has factory built Sat Nav.. it may have fave scam sites listed,, (as at date of manufacture....)
BEST PLAN... though
4. Apply C O A S T on way back und treat the "new baby" gently
. He will show you what he can do when you are used to him

take your points about the two round things with lids on them. and they're find for Gatso's but Specs, laser traps are different (as my licence used to show). 'don't speed' is of course the most certain way not to get caught, but i prefer to spend my concentration on 'driving safely' thanks.
Try driving a bit slower if you find it that hard to spot these things.
I'm sure many of us manage pretty well without detectors and devices in the car beeping constantly.
Specs are easy to spot a fecking great gantry with a camera or two on it.
Laser traps.... well, i'm just suspicious of anything I see parked on the verge in the distance.
It's not hard really.

That's a lamentable excuse for not being observant - that Specs and laser traps are 'different'. Gassing Station | Speed, Plod & the Law | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
