Litchfield in the Midlands? I think not, it's in Hampshire. Perhaps you
got lost and went to Lichfield?

I know there are 17 unnecessary speed cameras /each way/ between Rugeley and
Stoke on the A34, and they're mainly very craftily placed. NSL into 40 limit
quite often with the camera right behind the first 40 sign then another 200
yds up the road - normally hidden behind another sign.

The A5 has been like that for a long time - sudden and inexplicable
changes, as you say, from NSL to 50 or 40 - just as the road dips ...
there's a camera.  Lots of skidmarks around the camera sites, much
evidence (fragments of lenses) of rearenders in the gutters.

It looks much like some c.nt has had a big bag of Gatso seeds and has
just scattered them along the verges.

Loads of them on roads to the east of the river Severn. Not quite so
bad in Shropshire to the west of Sabrina(1).

Cue jokes about curves.
