Re: Whens the time to get a new Job?

Re: Is it an ANPR or a speed camera or both.

Usually both with those vans mate. They have a whole computer system onboard. Actually the majority of speed camera's now are both as they have all been digitised and new style camera's fitted everywhere, especially on the motorways and A roads. The only non ANPR camera's left now are the hand held...
