Speed Cameras and Black Spots
This section describes the type of cameras and road hazards covered by
ROAD ANGEL Plus:
Gatso
The most common type of speed camera –
used in fixed positions mounted on poles at
the roadside. Measures vehicle speed
using radar and, if the speed limit has been
exceeded, photographs the rear of the
vehicle. Uses a flash unit inside the camera
cabinet or mounted on a gantry to
illuminate the offending vehicle's rear
number plate. ROAD ANGEL Plus relies on
up-to-date database information for
detection.
TruVelo
Measures vehicle speed using sensor
strips in the road and photographs the front
of a speeding vehicle, along with the driver.
Uses an infra-red flash. ROAD ANGEL
Plus relies on up-to-date database
information for detection.
SPECS
Takes a digital photograph of your vehicle
at the ‘start’ point and then another a set
distance further down the road. If your
average speed is greater than the speed
limit between these two cameras you are
automatically prosecuted. ROAD ANGEL
Plus relies on up-to-date database
information for detection.
