Does anybody know exactly what the laws are on police using mobile speed traps?
Does the dection device have to be fully visible or a warning sign of a device being used in a area be visable?
I ask this because I was driving down past forestside the other day and I noticed a police transit van hid in a small car park with the camera poking over the wall pointing at the main road. Both back doors were open so the graphics where not in view and the angle it was parked you couldnt tell it was a dector van, also there is no signs up on the lamposts in this area unlike some main roads where there is speed camera signs on every other post.
Could this be classed as "entrapment"?
I know there is no excuse for speeding in a built up area, but I just thing this is a fly move by the officers to gather fines rather promoting road safety.
