Road Cameras

[nikko]

I hear what you're saying chaps but, working in some of the environments I do, I'm afraid I was brought up to believe that you hear & see nothing and never say a word about anything. This forum, whilst being useful to the public, is more useful IMO to engineers who wish to know how something works and share knowledge/experience. The information on the external links is largely incorrect, leading me to feel it is based on mostly supposition & speculation. This means the author is either insufficiently skilled to obtain the facts, or those facts are unavailable.

What I will clarify in the Public Forum is, the green cameras are just ANPR devices. They are not speed cameras and are not used to detect Road Fund evaders. The Home Office Directive states they are to be used in the detection & prevention of major crime & counter terrorism only

Some Local Authorities use them for JTMS (Journey Time Management Systems) but, again they are not revenue generating.

I read what you are saying but I'm afraid I still don't understand.

Everyone on in this Forum is exactly the same whether 'in public' or 'in trade' when discussing these cameras, in general though we are alarm engineers, nothing to do with road side cameras, of what ever sort, what difference does a move make?

I still see no reason to move to 'Trade'
