how many sets does it take for it to record an average speed, say for example you went past the very first set of cameras and then past another set and come off would it record it if your average speed was higher then 50?

I've given up caring about them to be honest, I regularly do 10/20mph more if its safe to do so and have nothing to show for it other than getting to my destination faster

If theres 6 cameras in one mile distances over a 6 mile strech they could be countin the distance from 1st to 2nd or 1st to 4th, its hard t tell which ones are timing, apparently it doesnt work if you change lanes, but then again you odnt know whihc theyre timeing you on to chane lanes!

i just come off the motorway on a junction and there was a set, done an average of about 70 until the next junction and there was another set, just wondering what the chances were of it getting me between one set of cameras?

think you'll be fine. don't know anyone that's actually been caught on them.
I used to think they were pretend cameras 
just gotta give it about 2-3 weeks and see if anything comes through.

They're either fake or massively flawed.

These confuse me as I regularly go faster than a lot of people as I stick to the speed my satnav shows rather than my clocks, yet I still have plenty of people fly past me going considerably faster than the limit set - I can't see they all get fined for it!
I swear they must be like motorway cameras where they have a set tolerance before they are set off.

God knows tbh, in the last couple of months they've littered the m4 through Newport with them. I just stick to 50 in general though, not worth the risk to save a few minutes! Plenty of people go bombing through them mind. And then there's the idiot sat doing 30... Lol

I have to pull in to the inside lane otherwise I will speed.
Sometimes I use GPS and go by that.
I know someone that sticks his cruise control to 5mph over the limit and hasn't been done. (probably because of speedo accuracy)

just take your front plate off;
a) its scene
b) you won't get done by forward facing cameras
