Every Saturday for years that piece of road is a 5-10mph crawl into and through Woodseats most of the daylight hours.
When I saw that van at the side of the road I burst out laughing.
He must have seen me so I just hope he doesn't book me for laughing at him.

I've never seen one there before. It must be someone new to the area that decided that one

They weren't checking cars, they were checking pedestrians as they were travelling faster

They wouldn't have been looking for law abiding citizens like you. But some folk do drive without using seat belts, or some use mobile 'phones, especially when the traffic slows.

Don't stop or they might do you for *loitering with intent*.

Perhaps they were just parked outside of the fish and chippery.

I think you're safe enough - you could argue that laughing proved you were driving with due care and attention, since normally you'd be moving so slowly, that you'd have to waken up to spot the Speed Camera
