Hopefully you might be worrying unnecessarily there are a number of vans around 
that check for road tax.  They are a bit hot on that in Lincolnshire, I was 
stopped for a check on a very minor road near Boston a while ago.  There are an 
awful lot of foreign workers in the area that are neither taxed or insured.  If 
that's the case - no problem!

The same camera? That sounds like carelessness!  :o)

I set off the speed camera at the bottom of the hill in Marsden once - 
driving towards it at around 33 mph but I never heard anything about it.

However, I had little experience a few weeks ago where I was in the 
right hand of two busy lanes in Stalybridge and saw a van parked on 
double yellow lines up ahead, which was forcing vehicles to move across 
to the right hand lane. As there was a car almost level with me in the 
inside lane, I put my foot down for a few seconds so that the other car 
could pull across behind me. It was only then that I spotted the back 
door of the parked van was open and someone was pointing a big camera 
thing at the approaching traffic! So, just at the wrong time, I had 
increased speed to about 35 mph! I haven't heard anything yet...
