A bit of light hearted fun but it does highlight the issue of safety camera vans and the locations they choose Sad

i only missed a few! got 13/19

what does annoy me though is the 'yes, the police car is illegally parked again'... i was under the impression that a copper can park anywhere so long as it is in the course of his duty - ie if it's for copper duties they can park there? darren?

Good point!

I thought that it was more to do with it being illigal for the police or camera vans to hide behind other objects.

I'm pretty sure of that. There have been cases where members of the public have complained in the past both against Police officers and Safety Cam partnerships but I'll do some research and report back.

Good point darren, Like in the instant with the van in the bus stop I'm sure the first people to complain would be the bus operators.

I registered a mobile camera location I saw in a bus stop once. Saw it in the same location twice more and then haven't seen it for about two years.

HI
