Er, right. I travel the section of the A1 as far south as the M18
reasonably regularly, and rarely see anything much to worry about.

You need to open your eyes a bit. There are routine radar gunning
sessions at Dishforth, Boroughbridge and Bramham and a rather aggressive
scout for speeding drivers by patrol cars in West Yorkshire.

Given that it's largely going to be dark when I'm traveling, I'll assume
they are everywhere and invisible.

They're not. The first one you'll come across is at Elkesley in a 50
limit just over the brow of a hill. There's one about 1/2 mile later.
Neither of them trigger at up to 56MPH. Next one after that OTTOMH
isn't until you get to Great Ponton where there's one there and one
about 2 miles later just north of Colsterworth. There's one just after
Colsterworth junction/roundabout then theres' another a few miles
later. After that, it's fairly clear until you get south of
Peterborough. Between Tempsford and Biggleswade there's a few (watch
out for the one just after a bridge just after you've entered the 50
limit) and then it's fairly clean down to the M25.

/makes notes/
Cheers Conor.
