Hi,
Saw a man in hi vis on m69 motorway bridge with a tripod with a camera that looked like a generic cctv one. Was it a speed camera?

Cheers

Ahh but was he measuring distance over time? That’s the big question? (And the question the OP poses)

it will just be someone photographing lorries etc
fair enough not for me but lots of people get something out it judging by the numbers I see travelling up and down the UK motorway system, no different to me being on 24 flight radar waiting for A380 to pass over
