One way or another they're going to get you... A standard Gatso speed camera monitors northbound vehicle movements on the opposite carriageway, just south of Junction 3 of the M4 Motorway, while another camera keeps tabs on southbound traffic. At first I thought this was a forward facing Truvelo camera, but now I am not so sure because the camera apertures are square, unlike a Truvelo where they are circular, while the camera seems to have the same corporate logo as the Gatso. And what is the function of the dull red lens on the pole to the right? Is this some form of different forward-facing Gatso relying on a secondary camera with a filter to prevent errant drivers being blinded by a flash?
