static speed camera's

[barrowmanandrew]

got flashed in speed camera this morning. ba***rds. thing is, i was driving towards camera, but another car hasd just passed camera coming the other way. ive heard these camera's can only get u if youve passed them and are driving away from it, any one know if this is true?...

It depends on which type of camera it is. Square box with a square flash opening only works in one direction. If it had 2 round openings then it works in both directions.
If you get a letter within 2 weeks then they got you, over 2 weeks & they can't charge you or it wasn't loaded.

The same thing happened to me a couple of months ago
but it was the other car going away from the camera that got done,I think you should be ok if it was a on facing camera it would not flash in your face.
instead a red light comes on.
