Xavina Neutral Newbie October 22, 2011 Share October 22, 2011 I was cruising on ECP about 12am at night and saw a TP beside his bike holding a handheld like camera facing oncoming traffic. Never knew there was a speed camera which is able to cap speed on oncoming traffic. Is this some sort of new toy or am I just behind time lol ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonTan 2nd Gear October 23, 2011 Share October 23, 2011 The first few months after they bought their laser speed camera(can capture the driver face), they stationed themselves at ground level, bustops and expressway bushes. I guess after some time, they realized its not a good position as the bushes got mosaquitos and insects, and also many drivers not satisfied to be caught stealthily. So now they stand on overhead bridge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it means that if they use only hand to operate, we can always appeal for its accuracy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisper_2000 Clutched October 23, 2011 Share October 23, 2011 You mean these cameras can capture the number plate even at night? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5936 1st Gear October 23, 2011 Share October 23, 2011 Oops. Sorry if made you worried. I only meant the speed detection. No info on the photo taking cam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5936 1st Gear October 23, 2011 Share October 23, 2011 Tripod only for prolong usage and fitted with camera. Hold too long their hands all tired. I heard they have 30+ and buying another 20+. Some may be fitted to police cars front and rear windscreen Radar or the latest laser gun-- I am not sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copen 1st Gear October 23, 2011 Share October 23, 2011 Ya was wonder if at night they are ale to capture number plate without flash. Our headlight should be able to blind out camera. But not too sure on this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicolor 5th Gear October 23, 2011 Share October 23, 2011 Not sure about the type used in Singapore, but the Hong Kong police frequently carry out anti-speeding operations at night, both with handheld laser guns and tripod-mounted radars or cameras. Therefore, never assume that the speed readings or number plate cannot be picked up at night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

5936 1st Gear October 24, 2011 Share October 24, 2011 I think so. I met this supplier, he said the unit came with 2 sensors, one wired to front and the other to the rear of wind screen. And the worst is that, the police car need not stop. They can scan while police car is moving. if kena the unmark car fitted with this speed camera, "Eat Luck" men.

5936 1st Gear October 24, 2011 Share October 24, 2011 These are not the older days analog punter meters. it's laser technology, detection is in nano seconds. I tried it. readings are on the screen before I could release the trigger. Anyway I am buying the one sensor speed camera for office use. To catch speedsters who drive above 30km/h.... yes that's 30km/h limit ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
