I was at traffic lights where two lanes went into one after the lights. The van on the inside was belching diesel so when the lights went green I accelerated very briskly to ensure I was in front of the van. Maximum speed would have exceeded the speed limit (by 10-15 MPH) very briefly. Twenty yards back before the traffic lights was one of those combined cameras (red light and speed). I assume that the camera was a radar one and not the one using strips in the road so could the camera snap me even though I was at least 50 yards past it by the time I exceeded the limit?

50 Yards past, think you would have been fine.
Were you on the A127 to Southend. Nightmare road with dozens of camara's, constant 2 into 1 back to 2 back to 1 with traffic lights.
and various speed limit changes every few yards

If you do get a penalty notice in the post, just fill in the back for 'mitigating circumstances' and tell the story above. Embellish it a lot (basically write a novel). I have found over the years that the people doing this stuff generally can't be bothered to read a long, boring story and cancel it as it's easier. Then move on to ones that are easier to get the money from.

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.
