Hi Guys,
I was up in Chesterfield buying some ingredients for Thai food with the wife. On the way back home, travelling southbound on the M1 I thought I saw some lightning in the distance. A big flash across the sky. Looked to be a few miles ahead. Anyway next thing, maybe a minute later, I'm just mentioning to the wife that there are these HADECs speed cameras on the side of the road. I didn't realise that the second I said it that it would go off.
Luckily it was on the other side of the road and when I looked in the rear view I could see that there was a variable speed limit in force. I may have been doing 80 at the time. Which doesn't normally set them off.
The front dash cam doesn't really do the flash justice. Most of the light cam in my drivers window. It was blinding. The second it happened I couldn't be sure it wasn't on my side but the rear facing dash cam shows it is indeed on the other side of the road.
So here's the video. Everyone be careful out there. These cameras are very hard to spot, even in daylight. As soon as you see a variable speed limit, make sure you react to it quickly and safely of course.
