The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) has begun trialing a new laser speed camera, the 'TruCAM II,' that can operate in almost any location. Its defining feature is the ability to issue tickets without stopping a vehicle, meaning riders can be caught regardless of road or time of day. It marks a major shift in how enforcement is carried out.

I used to brace up just hearing about enforcement myself too, but this really just means we've entered an era where you ride assuming you can be seen anywhere. This is exactly what I want to tell first-timers: speed only really works when it comes with the room to actually enjoy the scenery. Rushing and speeding never does anyone any good. Don't overthink it - go with the flow and ride safely, and there's really nothing to be scared of.

Thought this was just a Northern Ireland thing... but it's probably only a matter of time for Japan too.

If it's laser-based, radar detectors won't do anything against it.

So laser really can't be detected... we're done for.

Used to be just fixed units, but with things like the TruCAM II there's really no escape now.

Issuing a ticket without even pulling you over, seems like there's no room to argue, that's scary.

Being able to capture speeding anywhere, if it reduces the number of speeders, isn't a bad thing.

Can bikes actually be cited just from the rear plate with this?
