    Was on the summerhill to trim road.Two garda nearly in a hedge .just outside summerhill.With speed cameras.There was two pionting to the on comming traffic.They were looking into them.It was to late when i seen them.So i dont know if im in for a fine.Are these new cameras.Or do they have an enter and exit.So they measure your speed over a distance.Any one on a motorcycle get fined from one of these mobile speed cameras.

    whats the damage for speeding and when do i get the bad news.
    how much will my insurance go up.

    cheers........

    Is the "-" key stuck on your keyboard ?

    Maybe you could edit your post and it would make it alot easier to read.

    If they were pointed at the on-coming traffic they could not have gotten your reg, your probably ok.

    Not sure about these cameras. I've found that cops sometimes give bikes bit more leeway. I remember coming off the N11 at Stillorgan and cops had some checkpoint. I think due to the speed I was doing I startled them and they just kind of waved me through. I also thought that they would have to pull you over. The fact that bikes dont have plates in the front means they would have to have a rear-facing camera. Fingers crossed you'll be grand!

    Anyway, I'll ignore your stupid post. There's nothing worse than having someone ask a plain and simple question only to be answered some smartarse who provides absolutely no help whatsoever. :mad: Fecking wannabe mods.


    I was just offering some advice, be it on or off topic. The over use of exclamation marks, text speak and bad punctuation make it hard for other users to read a post.

    I'm not a "moderator" and don't claim to be.

    mobile units use RADAR so it has to be pointing at you.

    but as far as i know with a mobile unit they still have to wave you down on the spot or have someone futher down the road to pull you over to take detail's .
    i think it's only the fixed position GATSO type camera's that can bypass all of that .
    but i could be completely wrong

    GATSO's only shoot out of the back of the van now, this from a very good source (Inspector) when asked nearly the same question as the OP.
