"Daddy" Gatso Speed Camera

This new super speed camera, dubbed 'the daddy' had 4 lens's!. Motorists really will have nowhere to hide. It will produce three digital stills plus video capture using the 4th lens. These enable it to patrol up to four lanes of traffic at a time - current camera systems can only monitor part of a wide carriageway.

The new Multi-Camera System (MCS) can also be used at box junctions and traffic lights. There will be no disputes as to who was behind the wheel, as it has an infra-red flash, which means it can be forward facing to take pictures of drivers' faces.

The MCS is made by Dutch firm Gatsometer (maker of current Gatso). The hi-tech new machine can hold up to 60,000 images of speeders on its encrypted hard drive, while the photos can be downloaded any time via a phone link. This, plus the fact it comes with defence spikes to deter vandals, means the MCS is almost maintenance-free - something which will appeal to safety camera partnerships.
