Speed van on opposite side of the road. Car was doing 107 in 100 zone but when I passed the van and after we were at the right speed.

Back window only, no camera front facing. (CCTV yes, but nothing for measuring speed). Once you dropped the anchor in time you're grand.

They can measure your speed on opposite side of the road as you travel away from them of course, if the back window is in view of you. (they say they can do 3+3 lanes in both directions at the same time)
