All have walkie-talkies,

the police are now usig a white mini bus parked at the side of the road.

next to the mini bus is a police man with a tripod and a laser camera.

please note that this camera does record all details and you dont have to be chased and stopped to be caught.

there are random point's and a lot of them are in liverpool espicially when you come of the tunnel and around the bend.

be careful people think of the points.

Brimstage road, watch out at the Gayton end, I got stopped on Friday night and saw them again earlier on. They haven't got a car with them so very hard to spot especially at night. I only saw them once they were stood in the middle of the road with one hand in the air!

Passing on the M56 at the Runcorn Turn off today,
it looks like Spec Camera's are being
installed.

(Just before the Bridge on the M56)

I could see 1 of the posts being installed
coming towards the wirral (west).

Apparently there is going to be roadworks
around that area,
so beware there going up.

specs cameras are impossible to get caught by as theyre very very well signposted

The sign reads "average speed check" and is posted every few hundred yards,the speed check goes on for quite a distance so if u sped past the first sign slow right down til ur clear and ur average shud be below 70,or whatever the limit is on said road

The Spec Camera's listed above are up and runing,
there before and after the bridge
BOTH sides.

40 mph enfroced.

Not too sure if they cant read Square plates.
But they cant do motorbikes?

There is no number plate on the front of a bike,
so they cant hook up on it.

Nah, they can only read the top line of square plates. They're on a computerised system and if they have problems they'll automatically call a copper for help. Usually the bobby on duty can't be arsed lol.
