Faulty Speed Camera on the M1
Discussion
Good afternoon all, I'm looking for some advice and direction please.
I was driving on the northbound M1 at 1am this morning,about 5 miles from junction 13 when I saw some flashes coming from the camera gantry about a quarter of a mile ahead. The only traffic passing underneath was lorries, which therefore could not have been doing more than 60. I had the cruise control set to 70, but I slowed immediately to 50. Nevertheless as I passed under the gantry the flash went off. At no point before, or after the gantry were there any reduced limits on display, nor were any lanes closed, which leads me to believe there was some sort of fault. With that in mind, is there any way out the NIP if it comes through, and is it worth my while contacting the Highways Agency and explaining what happened?
Thanks in advance.
