Mobile speed camera detector

[action_turtle]

Hi all,

Looking for a speed camera detector, mainly the mobile vans! Has to work in the UK. Any recommendations?

I found this, is it Any good?

Cheers!

I appreciate it isn't a detector in the same way as your linked product, but Waze is a pretty good solution in UK and most of the rest of Europe.

Waze over Apple or Android wireless play is hard to beat. I've been using it in the RS3 for 6 months and it's not missed a beat in flagging fixed and mobile cameras. It's uses crowd sourced data so 9 times out of 10 someone else has already spotted the van and flagged it before you see it. You get a visual and audible alert with sufficient warning to make sure you're compliant

Also, no subs to pay and it even seems fairly light on data. Oh, and it's also rather good at navigation!

I was under the impression many of the mobile speed vans in the UK were laser speed based or purely distance over time between two spots photo. Those would be impossible to detect.

In Belgium and France everybody uses Coyote. https://www.coyotesystems.be/nl/

It's great, but only works if everybody uses it. It depends on other users

I thought any systems like that were illegal in France

Started using it on Potash Lane driving out of the factory last month!!!!!

Mobile scumbag tax collectors vans can get you 1km away.... but their location is supposed to be published every day so not sure if this feeds into waze too??

My only worry with waze is whether the camera location flaggs up early enough. It's certainly quite close for fixed cameras as I noticed today which would be a long way too late for a mobile.
Perhaps someone here can educate on the warning distance/notice for a mobile unit?

Cheers guys. I can try Waze, just wanted some more concrete. Rather have kit than rely upon the public etc. doesn’t sound possible though

Just a little update after using waze for exactly one year since driving my new Emira away from the factory...

I was riding my Motorbike away from the dealer after a service. Approaching a 40 waze piped up in my helmet (Schuberth with built in BT comms) notifying me of police ahead. As I closed on a bus the car in front decided to nail it round the bus right into the hands of the tax collecting twat in a van. I do have a detector in one of my other vehicles and got caught all the same.

Waze wins.
