Speed Cameras and Hazards
This section describes the type of cameras and road hazards covered by ROAD ANGEL
Gem+:
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 Gem+ relies on up-to-date database information for
detection.
SPECS (Average Speed)
Takes a photo 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 Gem+ relies on up-to-date database
information for detection.
Truvelo D-Cam
The Truvelo D-Cam has dual capabilities as a speed only
or speed/red light camera. It is digital and has the ability to
verify the class of vehicle approaching BY using three sub
surface sensors embedded in the road which in turn lowers
the speed threshold when required.
