    I doubt that map is entirely accurate as most of the cameras listed in my area are temorary ones, either police or warwickshire casualty reduction partership. However, the locations are very accurate. They should have another coloumn to indicate fixed cameras or otherwise.

    I'm fairly sure that all the cameras listed for Backburn are correct. Never seen any others apart from those. :)

    The ones listed for Lothian seem about right, I used to have one that showed traffic light cameras as well but lost it.

    Every second Sunday or so theres a cop who sits across the road from us. Sleeping or reading a book half the time with the engine running and Air Conditioning running. So i go out and taunt him and ride round with no helmet on.

Man i love to drive fast but it can get you into some real sh|t

    Just found another camera today - Blackburn road (A666) in Darwen.

    Testing "for signs of overheating" in my car was fun :naughty:

    Almost hurt myself braking so hard...

    The Wolverhampton list doesn't seem very good at all, there's loads missing. A449, Henwood Road, Cannock road....cameras aplenty on those routes, but not even mentioned :duh:

    There's another one in Burnley Road in Accrington if anyone goes down there, half way down, next to the Esso station - watch out NW people... (not the you can find ANYTHING reasonable in that bit of Accrington anyway...)

    Leeds is infested with speed cameras now, and the mobile ones are everywhere, I normally see 1-2 per journey.
    Oh, and I got done twice for doing 36 and 37MPH in 30MPH zones, absolutely f*****g pathetic. :wallbash:

    :nono: to UK traffic police, nothing better to do obviously.

    I wouldn't say it because they have nothing better to do, it's more a case of motorists are an easy target. All the fines produce revenue for the government & police forces and as a result the police are more then happy to pounce on the unsuspecting motorist.

    The worst place to put a speed camera is on a steep hill (30MPH max) Grapes Hill Sucks as well :| What car do you drive Atomic?

    One of these :D Not this exact one anymore cos the engine overheated and died. Got a whole new car, but it's a lighter blue and has a different (better IMO) interior.

    I got flashed by the grapes hill one but I think I was lucky because nothing ever came through about it... phew!
