I remember the one up near J40 was broken not long after it first got put in, was flashing at every car going past. Also benefitting image sharpness is in-body 5-axis image stabilization that compensates for vertical, horizontal, and rolling camera shake. A number of posts claiming that all cameras on the M1 and M25 motorways will go live “tonight”, with a maximum speed limit of 72 miles per hour, have been shared on Facebook over the past week. You can just spot these on approach [though Google Streets seems to not be able to catch them from their viewing angle], as large grey boxes on brackets, hanging on the far side of a gantry.

Claims like this can cause alarm and confusion, and so it’s important to check information before sharing it online.

In regard to the E-M1 III's physical design, it features a durable magnesium alloy body along with extensive weather-sealing to support working in harsh climates. This gyro technology allows this motorcycle riding camera to record clean and clear footage, even on rough terrain. You cannot rely on absence of cameras on the opposite carriageway meaning corresponding absence on your side.

On top, it records backup sound in 2 additional channels in omni-direction to provide flexibility for editing when you record specific voices in your content creation. I believe there was a 3mph cushion when first introduced but I was advised by someone in the RAC that it was reduced to 1mph a long time ago. Tim Sagar, THINKWARE Business Development Manager, says: “The M1 opens up new markets for us and we are looking forward to competing with the likes of GoPro in the motorsport segment, where it is a mandatory requirement to record footage both at the front and the rear.Always check the LED when you start a ride as if it’s flashing red, it means there’s a problem with a camera or the MicroSD card.
