Travelling between Bradford and Leeds last night with the gantry limits at 50, sitting on cruise at an indicated 52, so probably 49ish, and got flashed 3 times on separate gantries.

Test flashes?

Calibration?

Error?

Has this happened to anyone here before? I'm mostly managing not to worry. But I can't help but be slightly concerned.

The cameras on that stretch will flash once immediately after a new speed it is signalled back to the speed cameras by the gantry signs.
There may also be a number of single flashes at intervals between sign changes.
If there is a double flash then that is done after a vehicle is seen to be above the enforcement threshold for the indicated speed limit.
Remember when the illuminated signs are off the indicated speed limit is 70mph...unless you are driving a vehicle that is not allowed to do 70mph.
Thanks Emma. That's really useful.
