Speed Camera Websites

I often look at the yellow UK speed traps website run by Steve Warren which is an excellent source of information on speed cameras, speed traps and police laser guns, I’ve been aware of the site since about 2000 and although it does appear a bit muddled (visually at least) it contains lots of great technical information and pictures and I’ve recommended it to friends that have been paranoid about being caught by a camera that flashed.

I was browsing the web recently when I came across another site that I haven’t seen before called clearlicence.co.uk. Much like UK Speed traps Clearlicence seems to have lots of information on all of the different types speed cameras (some which I didn’t even know existed!), but unlike the yellow site seems extremely well laid out. What’s great about this site is that it also has information on things that aren’t really speed cameras. I often hear rumours about the cameras on traffic information signs being used to catch speeders on the M4 and clearlicence demystifies this quite a bit! The site also has information on the process if you are caught speeding and when and where the new speed awareness courses are offered in place of points on your driving licence.
