Ok thanks for your advice. I`ll write a few notes now and keep it just in case. It would just be my luck to get stung for going through a green light! There is just too many cameras around its getting silly!

I did think that it could be one of these digital ones. I don't think it is one of these. The camera has been there ages and does not look like one of these new types. Plus do these new types actually flash?

I didn't think so, but the picture above seems to show a flash unit...

Very good point, I guess I`ll know in the next few weeks!

Worth phoning your local nick / camera unit?

Had a rad light camera flash me at green and phoned it in, turns out they already knew as several plodcars had already been flashed.

I called my local police station, who said it was nothing to do with them and I need to contact the Council, but because it is Easter weekend it will have to wait until Tuesday! I`ll see what they say!

Why would you be speeding through a lights controlled junction, DF?

I was not speeding, it is a 50 limit road and I was doing around 40, when the camera flashed and almost blinded me!
Thanks for everyones replies, still no luck getting in contact with the council.

Which is why I directed that at DF...

Noone sensible - like yourself - would likely to be speeding there...


I do apologise, I read your post wrong.
