If it's the stretch of A303 i'm thinking about, Yes it is right. I got hit by that camera a few years ago.

Summons started:- Traveling in excess of the speed limit for vehicle type..

Car = 50mph
HGV = 40    10 mph less

I was sitting with cruise on at 50mph >:(

they might be using a combination of ANPR & WIM (Weigh in motion). This has been in use by the Transport Ministry for years on the M6. It's like shelling peas finding wagons with axle overloads.

Locally the rozzers have some portable ANPR kit that uses WiFi Max & 3G technology to log numbers. Allegedly only deployed if a specific threat/prblem is expected.

I'll stick some links up when I find them.
