the road?

Gatso can only photo as you pass it, but tuvalus (sp) do it on the way 
in. As for the other side of the road, I'm not so sure about.

Taken from the following site:  http://www.ukspeedtraps.co.uk/speedfaq.htm

Q, Can a gatso camera take a forward facing photo of a driver and is that
evidence be admissible in court? I was flashed twice the other day as I
approached a gatso.

A, As long as it is a Type 24 Gatso then no. The gatso is not approved for
forward facing pictures and more often than not will not get you in the
pictures well enough anyway. Do not mistake a TruVelo Forward facing camera
for a Gatso, TruVelo cameras do take forward facing pictures.

Using Doppler radar IIRC and have a "white" light flash.

(facing them)
Using induction loops/sensors set into the road, these have and infra red 
flash with IR sensitive film.

Also SPECS can work both ways,
