Hua Hin Speed Cameras

[caller]

I'm just back from my daily trip to Khao Tao. That entire stretch of central reservation has absolutely nowhere for somebody to hide/cover from the sun. No self-respecting Thai, let alone police officer would spend that long standing in the sunshine.

Could it have maybe been a camera car? Were all 4 photos taken from the same location, or differing locations?

Couldnt it have just been an automated camera?

I'm pretty good at spotting them. On the stretch of road in question, apart from the cameras at the university junction (I don't think they are speed cameras), there are not any cameras that I can see.

berlinmichael has been caught 6 times in a matter of weeks there. I am intrigued.

I'm pretty good at spotting them.....

To show how these cameras can be hidden, here is one in Luxembourg in an election poster:

It's not possible to tell if the photos are from the same location as the image size varies. Some photos seem really close up and only the front of the car is seen where others are more distant which is how I know. the camera was low down and looks to be located in the central reservation. One thing I did notice is a green spot pretty much central on all of the images - laser perhaps??

It doesn't sound off for anything unusual other than automatic doors when I go past a 7-11, which is fine - I'm used to that . I did have a list of the various frequencies it detects, but no idea where that is now.

Very few of the new speed cameras brought a reaction, but what I did notice (during daylight, of course), every warning I received, there was one or more camera, but also a round, black glassed thing that looked like a lamp - I guess that contains the speed sensor. Certainly the set up near HHH has one of these black lamp type things, if anybody wants a better look - I had no warning on either my app or detector for that one, so I guess very new.

This recent influx of speed cameras is getting a lot of coverage on social media. As I thought, the "black glassed thing that looked like a lamp - I guess that contains the speed sensor" is what makes the difference on the recently installed cameras.

Wow, there's plenty of those next to Macau, in China's Zhuhai city and they flash quite often, most likely just to record the registration plates of the cars passing by as I have not noticed anyone driving too fast.

There's no noticeable flash in Thailand.
