Question on Speed Camera's and Red light camera's

Nuad SG

hey does anyone know if from orchard going down by cairnhill circle into CTE tunnel, the tunnel's entrance is there a speed cam stationed there??

recently i been riding my bike back from there and the first time i went through to the tunnel, and assuming the tunnel speed limit is enforced there i kept at 70kmh below the (my presumed) speed limit of 80km/h i noticed a bright flash.

i was kinda blur and paranoid! speed cam??? after passing there again to check another day, i noticed a tiny tiny sign after i looked around intensely (40km/h) was stated! and its really hard to see the speed limit sign its on a overhead board just as u enter the CTE tunnel. and the worst thing there is a camera!!! its not the conventional red light stalk boxes, but a cctv rectangular one.

ok so the third time i passed through there, i was on a rush back home from class and proceeded again at 70km/h forgetting what happened a week or so ago! it freakin flashed again!

ARghhh! paranoid!

can anyone confirm if it is or not? i have been checking my mailbox everyday, yesterday i saw a LTA letter i was "hong kan liao" then its my brothers road tax renewal -.-....

another question also, is the little ball CCTV like things on red light's new red light cameras? ive been noticing it for a while now and im not sure?

can anyone despell my fears? its been a week and my EDDIES data is still clean..

Junction Electronic Eyes (J-Eyes) is a system of surveillance cameras installed at major signalised junctions to act as remote eyes for traffic operators at the traffic control centre.

What are the benefits of J-Eyes?
J-Eyes enhance traffic flow at major road junctions in these ways:

They act as remote eyes for traffic operators to spot and rectify causes of traffic congestion.
They can deter illegal parking and loading or unloading along major roads.

How does J-Eyes work?
Surveillance cameras are mounted on special poles, street lampposts and buildings at major road junctions. They are able to pan, tilt and zoom to capture clear video images of the traffic situation at junctions.

These images are sent to the traffic control centre, where operators can quickly respond to any traffic incidents.

J-Eyes are placed at major signalised junctions to detect irregular traffic situations.

yes i do know cctv's dont use flash thank you very much, but im very certain that there was a big flash when i drove past there, it looks like a cctv cam, but hey what if it isnt?

the camera at the cte entrance which seemed to have flashed. i am talking about does not resemble a J-eyes one, its rectangular in shape.

so psst, i don't appreciate your sarcasm.

hmm i just went into the cte(sle) just now via the cairnhill entrance.. i think i saw the rectangular cctv u were talking abt.. it's on the ceiling to the right above the chevron markings right? it's pointed at the main expressway not at the entrance and there's no sign of any flash capability anywhere near the camera so i can't figure out where the flash u mentioned come from =/
