New Peak area speed-cameras
November 08, 2002, 02:41:32 pm
SamT has just emailed me with the following two new cams:

  • Rivelin Valley Rd, Near the Hagg Hill turn-off, going back into Sheffield
  • Stoney Middleton, at the laybe opposite the old garage.
  • And worst of all, on a great fast bit of road: Just down from the Dore crossroads (where the Long Line turns off) going back into Sheffield. Wonder how long that one will last, ho ho ho!


Any more sneaky cameras? Report them here....

Of course, this sort of behaviour is disgraceful and should not be condoned  :wink:



* Also see http://www.speedcamerasuk.com/ for many cam locations.

:P

errmmmm....
allegedly there are some cavers with access to large fireworks in the region of these cameras....

we as good law abidding folk should assist the authorities policy of advertising the location of these cameras to as many as possible....

including every self respecting explosives pyscho we know...

by the way it's 6months jail de facto if you get caught - no fines - 1 year ban and the delights of clinky

 :shock:

See this (and check the mobile camera sites too)

http://www.southyorks.police.uk/traffic/traffic-fixed-cameras.htm

One police force that is maybe actually trying to reduce accidents rather than just make money.

The one at Dore appears to have been "modified". The camera lensy bits were pointed towards the traffic, yet the white strips on the road were down-traffic of the camera.

Shame  :P
