Should be easier to spot in the future as apparently 15 Police Forces have agreed with the proposal regarding their use.

1 - Painted Bright Yellow
2 - Not hidden behind hedges, sign posts, bridges etc
3 - Warning sign posts 150m before Camera
4 - All the above must be done within 6 months
Unfortunately I do not know which forces are doing this,

Anthony

We'll I'm sure Derbyshire police will have to look long and hard at their fixed cameras - they are the most cynically hidden I've ever seen

ROFLMAO.

Yes they're even talking about giving out bulletins on radio about where they're sited with encouragement to slow down. Sugar coating the pill?

That has always been the case. If the situation has changed it

Tough luck there Paul, that would come under,' Not able to serve within 14 days despite all reasonable dilligence, in the circumstances'

As the police don't use recorded delivery for sending out notifications (in fact, according to my son, who had one recently, the envelope could be taken to be junk mail as it doesn't mention police or prosecution etc.) how can it be proven that the notice was served??!!
