Went under a bridge this morning on the M40 and it had a white unmarked van parked on it.

Positioned over each motorway lane was what looked like a temporary tripod with a camera on it.

No markings anywhere whatsoever. Van was white, cameras & tripods were grey

Anyone know what this was likely to be?

Was there a gaggle of fast pold cars near by? Did the bridge have access to the main carriageway? (for example a bridge as part of a junction roundabout)
