Hi everyone, got this sent to me by 1 of my mates yesterday and thought i had better pass it on! it maybe crap but at least you know!

Metropolitan Police Service (for those of you who didn't know) that as and from the
15th February 08 all the Speed Cameras in the Variable Speed Limit
section of the M25 near Heathrow Airport (JCT 10-15) are going Digital
and the activation limit is being lowered.

They are currently the older film type cameras and Set at 90mph when the
Variable Limit Signs are not in operation.

The new digital cameras are going to be set at the normal 10% 0f the
speed limit + 2mph (80mph + and your taking a risk basically) when the
signs are not in use i.e. national speed limit. I can't confirm the
activation limit when the signs are set (variable limits showing) but
belief it would be the same 10% + 2mph of the speed shown by the sign at
that time.


Cheers John

Would be nice to know if this is all factually true.

Surely someone on this site works for either the police or whoever is involved in this......
