Should be ok mate, if you head towards them speeding they will flash ya, but i dont think the old bill can do anything as theres now lines on your side of the road

There is one near me that ment to monitor the south bound road, but as its quite a narrow road (and I tend to go though there at a rate of knots ) sometimes I have set it off heading towards it.

Never got anything thou. Infact I even got it down to an art so I can set it off when cars are comming the other way so they think they go flashed

Evil I know

Do you think they take a pic? If everyone set a camera off as they past one on the other side of the road, it would cost the police a fortune!!

Shud be ok, best thing in the world is having a motorbike, and heading toward the front flashing camera's poping the front wheel up and going thro it...Must be so funny when they look at the pictures and see either a biker with his middle finger up or the bellypan on a gixxer 1000....
