Have just read in the bike press that the police are now using 'un-marked' speed camera vans. This is first being done in Northamptonshire, but will surely spread nationwide.
Joy!

Yep, believe they are grey. f**king Northamptonshire are well known for being shit hot for speeding. How to alienate the vast majority of the general public who are law abiding do them for 3mph over they are also going against acpo (association of chief police officer’s guidance) around 10% + 2 mph. t**ts Won’t arrest a drunk driver leaving a scene of a rtc but will sit in a van to do you.

Alex They already use the bigger sort with people inside... have done for years over roads like the C&F and hotspots in North wales etc. They do have markings tho... quite clear ones lol (best to 'enjoy' roads when there is a light mist )

Oh no. It's worse than I thought. Wonder if there is such a thing as a handlebar mounted anti drone missile? Could double up as a speed detector van weapon...

The drones won’t be used for speeding just poor driving. They won’t be able to confirm road speed and they won’t be big enough to carry a calibrated camera. You may get stopped for speeding but unless you state after caution your speed and even then how do they confirm it you’re ok. I absolutely feckin hate yellow backed rats.
