Its tosh!
A gatso can do you both ways but they are a bit primitive, so lines are needed for an accurate speed. Some only nick you head on so they can get a mugshot (truevelo etc). Specs average speed cameras are head on only.

As far as I am aware GATSO's do not work with a vehicle heading directly towards them.
The lines are only on both sides so that it makes calculating speed easier should the offending vehicle be overtaking at the time. e.g a motorbike.

Gatso's like the one in this link can only get you facing rear:

Truvelo's are a whole 'nother story.

Gatso's only get you from the rear. They CAN flash you going in the wrong direction, but are only Home office approved to catch speeders on the same side of the road at them.
