Does anyone know about the use of Specs on the M1.
I know there are some just before the M25 southbound.
I am worried that I may have nabbed for speeding in the leicestershire area northbound on my very long journey to Harrogate last sunday morning. I looked down at my speedo to realise that I was going a little faster than I should on an empty motorway, and am worried that there are specs on that stretch of the M1.

Can anyone help?

Are there any on the M1 Northbound between Junc 10 and Junc 44. Sorry to be a pain, just petrified of losing my Licence.

There's no SPECs M1 North Leicester way - I drive it almost every day.

Often seen ANPR at a weekend at about J20 which is between Lutterworth and Leicester) on the M1 Northbound though.

If you're that petrified then don't speed. Also, are you blind? Can't you look our for cameras like everyone else does?

My rule is only to speed in 'known territory'. Bombing along an unkown motorway is asking for trouble.

I suggest investing in a GPS-based detector too.

Sorry to sound harsh, but if you're that worried then do something about it.

Thanks Rude Girl much obliged.

Trefor, Not bombing, just lost track of the speed I was doing, very easy in my car.

However in future, I will do as you say. However, I was only asking a question no need to give me a lesson.
