Safety (or speed) camera vans are often operated by the
police in conjunction with other services, such as a safety camera
partnership. They are not emergency vehicles and are either fitted with
amber flashing lights or no light bar at all. They are used to service
static safety cameras and are also used as mobile camera units. |
