BlueCorsaSxi (Rob) has one - and it's wicked!

Kerzo, this is exactly it - it works in 2 ways...

First way is they have a huge database about camera's and many experts adding new ones all the time...

So there's a GPS system - which not only tells you there's a camera near by, but what speed you should be doing and what speed you are doing!

but also there's the old radar style which picks up camera's that are completely new and mobile camera's etc.

It's pretty certain that any new camera will be added to road angles GPS database pretty quickly since that's what they're selling in their service - so your covered whatever happens!

well another thing in my town is there are cctv camera's on this piece of road which is like a 6 lane wide 30 zone which basically calculate the disatnce you have travelled and the time to see if you have been speeding or not....caught something like 200 people the first 2 or 3 weeks i think!!

^^like nitrousor summit else to make ur car go faster

And those camera's over a distance, working out the average thing, it lets u know when u coming up to the 1st one in the sequence and when uve gone past the last one. All very clever!!

Thay are pretty good. I have one for when i got to glasgow. Mental bit of kit.

When a gatso goes up they have to get planning permission to place it at its location. All that information is send to the sat andit tells u if you are near one and if your near an accident black spot.

Def worth the money. But the only thing that will catch ya out are police doing the average speed thing.

I have them on special for £319.00 , ooopppssss

I have one and it is well worth the 320 sqiud i payed for it---they dont work by laser, but by gps so you get no false alerts- all speed camera sites have to be declared and it picks these up.....also gives you blackspot warnings which are updated when you link up to the net- this gives good coverage as other users update local blackspots/radar trap sites.....it alsocomes with a mobile laser attatchment which detects all handheld laser guns.


I admit i bought it to try and keep my license clean as i am doing lots of motorway journeys- but owning one i am just as impressed with the accident blacspot alert- has warned me to slow down before big potholes- obviosly other roadangel users with lowered suspension lol

I was told there ganna be putting Digatal camera's behind Speed signs these cannot be Detected by any GPS or camera systems.

Only way i can think of not getting caught is use ur show plates i.e get www.Corsasport.co.uk made and stick them on and if they pull u give them the Bull shit about how sorry i just came back from showing my m8 and i got my real plates on and i will swap them over now so sorry.

I heard soem one done this and coppers let him go.
