The speed cameras you have captured there are all on the same side as you.

Sounds like it was for another car then. In Italy the cameras are almost always on the right. They flash you as you pass them(like in Austria)... so the driver never see's the white flash. They flash you from behind.

In Germany.... they can be on either side of you... but in Germany, they always have to flash you from the front and the flash is always a red flash.
Except in tunnels... like in Munich... the tunnel Blitzer's you can't see the black flash(with the new Blitzers)... until you get the ticket in the mail.

The German's have a law which says the polizei must have a picture of the driver... so that's why they always blitz from the front. In other countries... they don't care... they just send you a ticket.


There is one famous tunnel in Munich that has just been renovated... I think it has 32 Blitzer's in it! You won't see a red flash. Here are some of the cameras...

Kiesselbach-Tunnel in München on the 2R ring road...
