Garda speed vans?

gollywog · 2012-09-18 22:11:53

As above, Are there garda speed vans? I passed a stationery garda van earlier that would be parked exactly as a regular speed van and was curious if they were doing speed checks? Always thought the high vis vans and guards with guns were what you'd most likely come across?

Dos it matter?

If it does there's an easy way to find out, but it might cost you €80 and 2 points.

Unfortunately I might find out the hard way so, was slightly over 80kmh on my speedo when I noticed it today
