Community (not police) speed check? There's a lot of that round my way at the moment.

yes

If they had "guns" then yes. However if no guns of any sort (as in speed guns) then perhaps traffic counters.

They've got KCC jackets on.

They're on all approach roads into the hell hole that is Maidstone.

Might have a wander down to chat with them to see tomorrow - probably doing a how many single people in the car survey or how many trucks are actually going through Maidstone (justification again for KCC to wiggle out of a ring road.).
