Hello ! Sorry, for cross-posting, and I hope you don't mind me popping into your forum, but thought someone here might be able to help me.
I took a trip up north today, and spotted some cameras of a type I've not seen before, and was wondering whether they were speed cameras or just sensors linked to the 'Slow down - 30' signs you get.

The first one was as I came out of Ashton on the 635, it was facing me on the other side of the road, but seemed to be pointing straight at me. It didn't flash, although I'm fairly certain I was speeding (it was a wide road and 40 felt safe, although further down the road I noticed it was in fact a 30 zone). The second I spotted on my way back home, as I came round the corner and into a dip, heading back towards Ashton it was, again, on the opposite side of the road, but this time there was also a 'slow down - 30' sign which lit up. So is it a speed camera, or just a sensor. Neither camera flashed, but do these sort flash ?

Anyone ?
Cheers
Penny

BTW, was lovely day up there today, and miserable, grey and wet in the midlands. So much for 'grim up north' !
