Is it true that Specs cameras work totally on Automatic Number Plate Recognition and there is no corresponding picture stored? So if my car is cloned or stolen I have to prove that I was not driving it at the time of the incident?
Sorry for the repetition, asked in another forum but didn't get an answer.. |

Only if you are speeding.
| Quote: | | The video cameras continuously capture images of vehicles as they pass through the field of view of the camera. Their number plates are read using Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) and the average speed of the vehicle is calculated between the linked cameras, over the known baseline distance. If this exceeds the Police speed threshold, an offence record is created and violation images and data are logged. |

As with any other offence that uses video data. Backup still images are retained for evidential purposes, these can be used in cases where such issues arise.
