They've dropped the tolerance on digital cameras up here from the usual 10% but is unconfirmed what it now is...so just put the removalist on hold.

Running away just delays the inevitable, states are following eachother it's just that some are delayed by a year or two.

Need to stand up to this BS, if I had millions I'd start crashing in to these things (accidently ofcourse)...

ACT has 4 x White Mercedes Benz Vito vans that are used - they are fully marked - you will know when you go past one. Sign on the roof, that conveniently has the posted speed limit displayed as well. Arent they thoughtful?

Those number plate folders have been around for a while, a few motorbikes down here have them - very handy for the finnicky car cleaner, to ensure all the dirt that accumulates behind your plates can be cleaned up thoroughly!

Did anybody hear Alan Jones giving Roads Minister Borger heaps over these revenue cameras this morning?..... :turboboink:

Borger, as a typical pollie, stuck to his guns about the road safety excuses :spit: ..BUT...

He did concede that the 4kph tolerance is crap....and Jones took him up on this....to the point where he (Borger) is going to release a statement to that effect.....yes, there is a tolerance, but its higher than 4 kph.

For all its worth anyway. :blush:

Heard this morning on the radio that one was located on the M5 about a km before the toll booths city bound.

I just went through the location list and couldn't see M5 anywhere on the list...

Is it just a small percentage of people that realise this is just revenue raising?

Do you think that enough people really care about this BS to do something about it? I would love to think that we could get enough people to attend a rally prior to the next election calling for the removal of these tax collectors but I don’t think we could (loved to be proven wrong).

How about if we set up a fund and take donations that could pay for a bill board (a good one - like in front of Sydney airport) with something that's really going to hit home and get attention. like:

"Should Roads Minister David Campbell and Premier Christine Kennelly be charged with Murder for putting revenue raising before saving lives?"

Tell me that wouldn’t get some attention (not defamatory because its asking a question).

if it cost $10,000 a month I would chip in $100 bucks and we would only need 100 other people. It would be worth it.

If you convince me its worth it - I will set up the fund and get some prices.

That's the kind of thinking we need, NRMA is against these things too so might be able get them to come to the party.

A month long promotion will not do much but need to start somewhere... Trying to save $$$ right now but you can have a $50 from me to start with and if it get's off the ground I'll do more...
