Don't like the look of these

Pointing down at the M42.

Anyone know what these cameras are doing? Feckers. There were 2 on the other side of the bridge. Can't remember if they were looking at the same carriageway or not.

I think they are data collection cameras like the ones in Loughborough. Don't reckon they are speed cameras cause don't they have to be a Chinese (yellow) colour??
