The information on this link about speed cameras makes for interesting reading.
The accuracy of mobile speed cameras is checked.

In this link the driver should have used a 4 X 4, [:)] and not an Astra, as it would have done the job properly ! [:)] :-

Funnily enough I watched that article on Inside Out (thanks to Ch 967 on Sky enableing me to watch telly south west up in Lancs).
Still awkward to contest though.

If you contest the accuracy of the mobile cameras they usually drop the case

Takes a bit of guts and a little knowledge of how the system works though.
