Speeding

signage...
i haven't had a notice of prosecution yet, but i think i may have been caught speeding by a camera van just yesterday. I think i was roughly travelling at around 75mph on a road where there were no signs and have been told by friends that they may not be able to prosecute me, as by failing to provide signs either about the speed limit or the fact that cameras were used on that road, that they cannot legally enforce the speed limit, is this true??

If you are the registered keeper of the car you should get a notice in the post within 14 days of the alleged offence. What do you think the speed limit for the road was? If it was a 30 limit then the speed limit can be denoted by a system of street lighting - they don't need signs other than at the start.
If it was one of the higher speed limits then their must be terminal signs at the start and signs at regular intervals throughout.
It will all depend on the limit for the road.
Have you got any points already? If so how many?
