Does anyone know of a site listing the allowed locations of police speed traps? They do have to be in certain places don't they?

I've tried to google this and only found fixed camera sites.

Thanks

What are you referring to?
Static cameras? (Not run by the police)
Camera vans? (Not run by the police in general)
Police cars/bikes?
Police cars operating guns and camera vans. I thought all these had to be in approved/listed sites, hence sat navs ping them.

Okay, thanks all. Guess I need to wait and see if I get a prize through the post or not then!

Ah, so you thought you could argue on a technicality if you get a NIP?

i.e. the camera wasn't in an area where they have those nice signs telling me to expect a camera, or my SATNAV never told me there would be a camera?

It's so unfair being caught speeding like this .biggrin
Nope, more just wanted to know if it was a camera car or not. I mean there was a chance the copper could have been doing something worthwhile... Yeah slim chance I know.
