I've had two, both in average speed roadworks sections of the M6.
First was years ago, 72 in a 60 at 5am just before Thelwall where it's at least 5 lanes. I missed the first camera before the cones, then slowed to around 65 until the junction for the M56.
Second was earlier this year at 1.13 am av speed 60 in a 50, which I've disputed. I sped up between two sets of roadworks between J21 and J22 only to find that they had already moved the roadwork cones on without changing the signage. The sign said 1/2 mile to lane closure only for it to be 100 yds ahead. 4 of us who were doing 75-0 in the outside lane had to do an emergency lane change as the cones suddenly appeared in our headlights. I believe the camera's had been changed but not the signage, but no doubt I'll get told otherwise.
