Hi Guys

Probably a silly question, but a friend was driving on a dual carriageway and spotted a camera van like this on the other side of the road:

The front of the van was facing him or her - they are wondering if the camera can also work from the front of the van?

Many thanks!

They can only LEGALLY use a laser provided it does not go through glass. I got this confirmed from Essex SCP. If there are any access holes in the van then they may use these.
