I think I'll start sending this link to all those folks who are still deluded enough to say "poor obs", if you can't see a yellow box, etc, etc.

The distant ones, and the completely unmarked ones, just show what lies the partnerships are telling us when they say they vans are visible and well marked. furious

Great post Rich.

15 here too.

Managed to spot all the vans though, even the one I couldn't see!

14 for me. Not that that means alot since knowing there's one in the picture somewhere helps alot, in the real world I doubt many people would spot them apart from the observation masters on here of course. It'd be interesting if they had say 40 pics half with scams in and half not and an option to select no scam.

Yes it looks like the same road, what sneaky bstards!
Obviously a very good spot for maximising revenue. Often see a plod with bike and hair dryer like that in Swindon on a 40 DC (Thamesdown Drive?), comes into sight just as you go over the brow of a hill.

There's a similar sneaky spot on the M4 leaving South Wales, between the tolls and the start of the new bridge. Private slip road servicing a factory - plod hide behind the bushes 10 yards up the slip road and are completely hidden from all approaching motorway traffic. The only way to spot them is when looking across from the opposite carrigeway heading into S.Wales. What a massive money earner that must be!!!

It's also the only place I've ever been caught, 86 on a fine Sunday afternoon. Didn't have a clue how they caught me untill I spotted them there on my next trip into Wales. Haven't been back there since, no more of my business is ever going to Wales!
