Since Monday 6th June between 22:00 and 05:00 each weeknight a section of the M60 motorway has been closed to all west bound traffic so all traffic has to leave at junction 16, the A666, and drive through the village where I live. The road is lined with residential properties but Highways England, don't seem to be aware, or perhaps not concerned about the nightmare they are causing for residents who live along this route.
So I configured my Mobius to record continuously and disabled loop recording, connected it to a direct battery supply, stuck it in the side window of my car which was parked on the drive, and left it recording from 23:00 one night. The following morning I checked the files and discovered the Mobius had recorded until 04:20 when the 32Gb SD card was full.
I then edited the video to show only trucks and started counting. I was amazed to discover that over 500 trucks had driven by during the 5 hours 20 minutes so I contacted our local press, the Manchester Evening News and they were happy to run the story.
Over the next 48 hours I was contacted by several newspapers and also our local TV station, Granada, who came down to film my story. This was televised the following night and included footage shot from my Mobius.
Here's the link to my original footage but don't watch it all unless you get pleasure from watching paint dry.
