Speeding
Apr 28, 2010
Police car parked in a gateway
The mobile speed camera was parked within what looked to be a gateway or a driveway.I was on the understanding that these cameras have to have signs placed in specific areas to allow motorists to be aware of them , or can they operate within the pre palced signs which are on the speed limit signs

There are various guidelines regarding the positioning of speed cameras - but they are only guidelines. the court will only be intersted in whether or not you were speeding at the time of the alleged offence and wont be interested in whether or not the officer followed his guidelines. The only issue is the reliability of his evidence. If you accept the speed alleged (what was it?) then take the ticket if one has been offered.
