M62 speed cameras in roadworks - What type are they?

[MitchT]

The OH commutes from Wakefield to Bingley using the applicable section of the M62 and is wondering if the cameras are regular speed cameras or average speed cameras. Does anyone know?

Average speed cameras IIRC

are they actually working though?
seen lots of people cruise through at 70+

I see lots of people cruising through the average speed cameras on the M1 at similar speeds and more, but apprently they work too

I noticed that the truckers and taxis slow down, and I would expect them to be in the know

Friends daughter was caught by one in there other week @ 81mph, 6 points and £1000 fine, I would say they're on!!

I don't understand how thick people can be? I've even seen people shoot passed me then brake for the camera and speed up again!
I do wonder what speed they are activated at?

81mph is fairly retarded to be honest.

I tend to cruise a between 50 and 60 through them. Find a lot of people do brake to 45 waaaaaayy before they need to even though they have flown past me at 90 - 100 only a few miles earlier.

OP: Tell your missus to look for the signs along the motorway which say "average speed camera's"
