I don't want to argue cos it doesn't bother me either way, but they are average on the north circ.

Where?

ETA: I have checked: between Hanger Lane and the A1, so the section I use most! They are not yet live, but it explains the disappearance over the last year of most of the cameras I knew.

Has anyone been "done" on this A40 stretch? A mate of mine apparently did not know about these and at 2am in the morning drove from Baker Street to the M40 exit at least a month ago and he was way over the speed limit but has not got a fine as yet - do these actually work as according to what he has done they don't seem to be live!?

He's a tt agreed but no fines do make me wonder if these have been turned on!

Every time I pootle along there at 40 now, being overtaken by van after van, I wonder that.

Yeah, I used the A40 recently and saw cars and vans all blasting down there at 50/60 and braking in front of the avg speed cameras. Seems like they're getting away with it.

Yes, I have been done. Escaped 3 points and fine by being offered a speed awareness course. I was caught averaging 62mph in a 50 zone by Northolt

Sorry to hear that mate, thanks for the confirmation though. God knows how he got away with this!

You will have had to pay for the speed awareness course which is the fine.Unless they give free courses now.Mine is going to cost ninety five quid all for charity.

I presume these are also going to appear on the A41 and A1. Anyone know? Cos I've noticed all the normal fixed cameras that have been there for years have dissapeared. Which is very odd. Eg the ones around mill hill area

Hi,
Has anyone had any fines from this over the last few months?
