Regular motorist drivers should be familiar with the SPECS average speed cameras, which utilise state of the art video with automatic number plate reading digital technology. As vehicles pass between the entry and exit camera points, their number plates are digitally recorded, whether they are speeding or not.
The images are then paired up and, because each image carries a date and time stamp, the computer can then work out your average speed between the cameras. They have been known to flash on their own without being properly triggered by a speeding vehicle as well as being set off due to vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.
However, the latest digital SPECS average speed cameras are proven to be far more reliable as there is no film, and your speed is calculated by time rather than markings on the road.
