    Today I Came arround a corner at 55 in a 50 zone only to see a speed van, dropped down to 40 instantly! The van had only arrived as I passed that same road 20 min previous and there was no van. A friend just told me I am safe enough and won't get a fine as the van needs 45 min to set up after it arrives at its destination?? Is this correct??

    45 min set up somehow I think someone telling a tale.

    4 to 5 min setup is more realistic

    I went past a speed van at 60 on a 50 and got nothing. You should be grand.

    I saw a van setting up last week, he was out with what looked to me like a tripod and a measuring stick behind the van.

    anyone know whats going on there?

    When they are setting up they have to calibrate the equipment.
