I can imagine quite a few of us will be checking this site in mid-June.
Better not rely on it though folks as many of the traps seen around the Le Mans weekend look distinctly mobile.
Good site though. Thanks.

very handy for most, but as i shall be humbering i should be lucky to get near a speed limit to get done.
Last year though i was done by 2 gatso's, one at the tunnel by rouen and the other in Le mans as you come through the dual carraigeways and flyovers into town. Luckily they weren't all linked up to blighty last year but believe they are now?

There are moves afoot to link all the speed traps across Europe so I can get done in the UK and you can get done here, but I'm not sure how far it's got yet. It will also mean that points as well as fines will be levied so it's getting more and more serious. Mobile guys all move to the LM route for the week so beware, especially on blind bends/over the top steep hills etc/also on motorway slip roads and service areas and keep an eye out for other motorists flashing you - oh and please reciprocate and flash on-comers if you spot the "flics".  |

I was told by someone that the EU linked road offences came in to force last July. It certainly takes away some of the fun. I didn't mind shelling out 90 euros if i got done doing a bit more than the speed limit, fairs fair, but points is something no one can afford.

KK has arrived in LM for the bikes this morning and said that there were mobile speedtraps pretty well the whole way down on roundabouts and under bridges. We shall be towing with a roofbox and 4 of us in the car for the 24 so my diesel Saab is unlikely to break any records  |
