We are tied into a contract with GoSafe which has another year to run. Is there any way fixed cameras can be used on the 727 routes in question or is it the case that fluency does not allow this as we could have a change in circumstances? Would it be more cost-effective to use fixed cameras on many of these routes with enough scope to upgrade if necessary?
I did not receive an answer to my question on multiple vehicles. Obviously there is a problem with the GoSafe cameras dealing with multiple vehicles in an image with regard to angles or focus. Has this led to problems with convictions with regard to cars overtaking?
