Speed Cameras

[Big Boy]

Was it definitely a fixed camera, and not a mobile trap?

To be honest the camera could be either. I still haven't actually seen a camera despite driving through many times. Therefore the probability is a mobile device I guess ??

It would appear there are new cameras on the bridge Noth of Hua Hin hospital on both sides of Petchkasem Road. They look a little complex to be just for traffic control.

I'll be off to Ratchaburi soon - I will have everything switched on and will report back tomorrow. Personally, I don't see a problem if we stick to the speed limit, but nice to know because we all lose concentration from time to time.

Apparently they only went up two days ago so may or may not be active yet.

Well, BB, have fun. That cheap and cheerful made in China radar detector is basically a superhet set and will pick up everything from your 7-11 door opener to your anti collision and side mirror proximity detection on many newer cars. Also I don't expect it will have any laser detection diodes. The newer radar/laser detectors have built-in software to filter out these unwanted signals, but you pay the price.
Stick to the speed limit for now, I do. Well, most of the time. Hehe.

It doesn't sound off for anything unusual other than automatic doors when I go past a 7-11, which is fine - I'm used to that . I did have a list of the various frequencies it detects, but no idea where that is now.

Very few of the new speed cameras brought a reaction, but what I did notice (during daylight, of course), every warning I received, there was one or more camera, but also a round, black glassed thing that looked like a lamp - I guess that contains the speed sensor. Certainly the set up near HHH has one of these black lamp type things, if anybody wants a better look - I had no warning on either my app or detector for that one, so I guess very new.
