Speed Camera question

Last night I was ‘flashed’ by a Gatso. I was travelling towards the camera on the opposite side of the road (there were lines on both sides). At first I thought sh*t those cameras shouldn’t work for oncoming traffic! I googled when I got home and am fairly confident that I won’t be receiving a fine, the consensus is that the ‘flash’ is a deterrent and nothing more.
Has this happened to any of you guys?
 
They flash towards as well as behind, the speed triggers them regardless. But you won't be nicked for it.

:thumbsup:
 
Yes I think that's right. The ones that get you as you approach them are Truvelo, they're infra red ones. Look like this, no flash:

They do flash, but more of a purpely colour flash.
 
Same here with the old Gatso's. I was flashed driving towards one in pitch dark pouring down rain. Scared the poo out of me to be honest, very dangerous. I never heard anything more and the Camera was removed shortly afterwards, as I understand several people had experienced similar trauma and complained. :o
 
I tried to find a link but all the sites seem to have been taken down, well done big brother :thumbsdown:
