lameduck Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Whilst posting yesterday afternoonwalked past a parked little carwith cameras on top, and ANPR on side.It was parked at junction of St Norbert road and Brenchley Gdns. set up cameras to take pictures at vehicle registrations.Cut a long story, being nosy, Asked occupant are there any issues with any road closures etc, As I am fed up with fines being a motorist, one day you can drive up a roadnext day road closure. Fine in post.He told me waiting for car to pick vehicle parked behind him as was not taxed.walked back hour later, still there.I think they maybe covertly checking vehicles as at a vantage point rat run.Maybe I am getting paranoid.What do you think?

ianr Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 You've not told us whether you've checked whether the alleged untaxed car is atill there; or, if it is, whether it is definitely untaxed, as checkable here: https://www.gov.uk/check-vehicle-tax Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/269364-anpr-vehicle/#findComment-1467324 Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex_b Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Or perhaps they?re looking for untaxed and uninsured vehicles, like he said. I don?t understand why some people feel that motorists are being ?persecuted? by being fined when they break the law.

Dogkennelhillbilly Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 "I think they maybe covertly checking vehicles as at a vantage point rat run"Checking vehicles for what?It doesn't sound covert if there's cameras and a sticker on the side of the car.
