If you were doing over 170mph you'll be fine.
Or is that GATSOs?

Just a shame VBH isn't on Top Gear anymore IMHO. As for the cam thing, I dunno. Mythbusters beat the cam but it took some rocket powered thing at around 245 mph to do so. I prefer to take the easier option and just stick to the limit |

All the cameras round here flash twice. See them go off all the time because the lights in London areas are set so far back from junctions. It's almost like it's deliberate.

The reason Mythbusters needed to go so fast to beat the camera is that US speed cameras only take one pic whereas GATSOs take 2. On a related note, I only saw the TRUVELO on the way home from the parentals at the last minute. *awaits postman*
