Hey guys so i was dropping my girlfriend of at the train station this morning when i was coming home there was a policemen on the side of the road with his indicator on and obviously getting speeding motorists. now i dont think he got me because i was doing 88 i think in a 90 zone but he did flash his speed camera lights so he must have got someone in front of me (there was a few cars) now just to disprove it was me i'm asking if you know how far those flash's travel distance wise to get a car. He was 100m + away when he flashed and there were cars in front of me..

And if you were doing 88 in a 90 zone you have a case to defend it, especially if there are other cars in the picture.

100m away is way too far for it to be you.
They are usually no more than about 10m away, as the flash loses it's potential over greater distances, and certainly can't get you at 100m - look at some of the red light camera pics shown on various websites, and you'll see how poor their flash power is.
