Speed cameras on Mesaieed road

Leatherface

Guys...beware about the speed cameras on Umm Saeed road that seems to go operational recently. Earlier, i believed the cameras merely served as scarecrow but after the restoration of the power supply to the road, the speed cameras have been activated. I was caught unaware of this and have been fined for speeding. Btw, happy driving.....lol

the small one is Strobe Light, sensors are stored in big box... :P

Why not buy Radar Detector, one good product that works is Whistler :P

Y'know, in the year I've been up and down that road the 4 cameras have never moved! It's quite frickin easy to remeber where they are and slow down for them especially as they are all just after the speed limit signs!

Did you Google it first?

I have observed that the power source of these cameras (and roadlights) at mesaied are the electric generators beside the road,positioned at least 1km apart.

BTW,just follow the speed limit you'll never be fined.

The camera(s) is in the big box. I watched a guy serviceing them at Toyota Tower signal a few weeks back. The one on C Ring for sure has 2 cameras in it.

Did you Google it first?

( Kanoon ke HAAT ka tension Nahi hai )

just asking for me own personal brain bank ..

..

few days ago i like was going crazy in me car to loud music and could of friends , dint notice the signals went red .. and when i did , it was already too late and i was in the middle of the intersection going on around 80kmph .

from my side mirror , when i took a look to see if the dam thing flashes me or not .. I noticed the small radar ( the one to the front of the Big a** one ) was lying on the ground .. so there was no flash ..

thats all i wanted to know ..

which one is the flash and which one is the radar ..

and if one of the other is on the ground , Do i still go on getting caught by em ...

Wrong ?

When the small thing by some natural occurence falls down then there is a BIG HAND coming out from the BIG BOX ( Kanoon ke HAAT )....

i.e. POLICE hand which will grab u right from the collar from ur driving seat n punish U at the spot.... :)
