Problem is these mobile vans are by their nature all over the place and, as the fleet increases, so do the number of places they frequent; do you find the Road Angel updates are good at keeping-up with that?

When you're driving locally you tend to know where they might be sitting but ideally what you want to know is when they're actually there; flashing headlights from vehicles coming the other way is usually a good give away but not something you can necessarily rely upon!

The irony is most of the time I pass these things and they're of no consequence because I'm not speeding anyway. However, you only need to be caught once for it to be NIP time and it's all too easy to stray 10% plus 2mph over the limit on a quiet stretch of dual carriageway or A-road.....
