I just drove past a speed camera van which had solid rear doors (the doors where closed) the van and the operatives where facing me and i drove past them at around 40mph in a 30.

My question is can these vans do you with hand held devices facing you , through the windscreen?

Don't think they're allowed to do it through glass.

Were they pointing a speed gun at you?

I cant be certain but the guy was waving his arms about in the passenger seat..

Its quite possible they where taking a break before hitting the road... I hope my lucks in.

The whole way down the road as well I was doing a steady 30 it was only when I left the roundabout i sped up... grrgh
 
I'm 99% sure that you are safe :)


The odd thing about the van was the back doors where solid ie no windows or openings.. Just the 2 guys at the front giving me the eye waving there arms about. Not sure if they where holding a handheld speed gun or not!
