Yes! The road between Hesdin & Arras is the absolute worst now, constantly changing from single carriageway, to dual carriageway, to three lanes, all with different limits as well as villages some 50 k's, some 70's, & with a multitude of cameras of different types & design. I got caught by one I didn't know was there near Croix en Ternois last month. 91 in a 90 (I think!). I know three other people who got caught by the same one about the same time, so it must be new & well-hidden.

Just a nightmare road now & I don't use it if I can avaoid. To my mind it has become more dangerous because of the limits & cameras with everyone driving on their nerves. Still, if it makes money...
