Pictures of a supposed new type of covert speed camera being tested in the UK is spreading through Facebook and email.

The picture of the 'camera' which is installed into the central barrier/armco is accompanied by a variety of information such as the claim that it is being trialled on the A52 in Nottingham and on the A1 in Lincolnshire.

The claims are entirely false. The images have been lifted from a Swiss Police PowerPoint presentation where this device is being trialled. The device is NOT a speed camera, it is a speed measurement instrument and it is deployed in conjunction with the standard speed camera on a pole.

It IS NOT a new form of covert speed camera and IT IS NOT being tested in the UK. Please spread the word to correct the misinformation being passed around.

The black/white reflective post in the background and lack of cats eyes should have made it obvious to the more observant out there that it was not the UK. Then again, if you didn't spot the simple clues then you probably wouldn't spot a normal camera, let alone a hidden one, so why worry. Smile

And anyway.... surely all those that moan about the covert cameras must be admitting to speeding?

'coz if you're not speeding then it doesn't matter does it Rolling Eyes
