Just how do trucks get away with constantly overtaking / undertaking vehicles that are sitting at the posted limit..ie 50 mph,
i use the M1 constantly and am amazed at trucks doing nearly sixty, whilst cars are sticking to the limit..
Oh and there is one camera just inside the 'Luton' 50 mph restriction zone that seems to flash whenever it spots a car it likes, honest.. I've seen cars scoot past the camera at 60 + mph, and the camera hasn't even 'twitched', and then days later whilst crawling through an accident in the same spot, the speed was set at 40, and cars were crawling past at around 20/25 and the camera was doing it's best impression of David Bailey...Chris

I think someone has got a grudge against trucks.LED interior lights. Chrome mirror caps & door handle covers. LED reverse light bulbs. Pedal box. Atomic Alloys. Steel Structure spare wheel. Boot floor risers. Rear exit exhaust & rear valance. M Y ‘15’ front grille.

not a grudge,
just wondering if there are different 'settings' to these cameras... as a professional driver my speed is one of the most important things i have to be concerned about..(i loose my licence, i loose my livelihood),
if it helps, i do like to pull alongside car drivers playing on their phones, and just beep the horn and show them six fingers whilst shaking my head...you'd be surprised just how quick somebody can drop a phone.. (added to the fact that my work uniform looks very similar to a traffic cop uniform...)Chris
