as this is not a live case it's in the wrong forum and needs to be moved to "have I been caught"

it may have been a badly organised community speed check group.

you could contact plod and ask who it was.

Thanks for moving my post.
What's a plod please? and how do I contact them  :-\

The Flame Pit / Roadside police with speed gun stepping in the road causing me to steer towards oncoming road

While I was en-route to a hospital appointment with my pregnant wife, as I turned in a road (20mph road) I noticed some locomotion with 4 high viz individuals between parked cars on the left. As I approached (going around 20mph) they moved towards the road, and I notice one of them with a gun dangerously stepping in the road to get my license plate I suspect). Causing me to brake and do an avoidance manoeuvre (the only point when I looked at my speed and was doing 16mph at the time).
Whilst I don't think I was over the speed limit until I receive a NIP, I want to write a complain or do something about the way they conducted this speed trap. How can I go about it please? I understand they were so keen to catch people speeding (like haven't they got better things to do between holidays?!) but they need to do this in a safe manner! What if I had an oncoming car on the other side of the road, do I have to make the decision to run them over or crash the oncoming car?! Very unprofessional!
