Just to warn all you people, the police have mobile speed cameras that they usually set up on Friday and Saturday nights along the A127.

For the last two weeks they have been at Childerditch near the A128 snapping people going eastbound.

Tonight they are just between the A128 and the Laindon turn off.

Each time their cars are hidden away out of sight and the cameras are only visible when you are on top of them.

Be careful,

They have been in on the eastbound carriageway just after the turn offs for Childerditch Industrial Estate, tonight they were on the hill, just past where the gypsies have been by the A128 turn off.

Virtually opposite the van rentalplace/garage.
Looks like they were setting it up tonight about 8.30.


Don't know whether they swap to westbound later to catch London bound traffic.

That's handy, thanks.

I saw a safety camera partnership Transit yesterday parked up at the side of the road.

There was no tripod or camera next to it, but one of the rear door windows was removed, and I imagine had a camera poining out of it. I couldn't really see in as it was dark inside the van, but the rear window was definatley out, and was parked in a location they always use for speed traps. I went past later in the day and there still was no sign of a tripod. I think now they don't even bother to get out of the vans & set up cameras!!

They are marked which makes them more visible, so I suppose that's something.

There favourite haunt recently is in Langdon Hills, High Road by the Triangle shops.

And hidden under the trees.

Not far from where I live.
