Took the bike through the toll road last weekend and just coughed up 2 dollars:angry:

Anyway I don't know if this a local thing or it had to do with 80 cops in Auckland being flown to Chch to help with the earthquake but all the goobers in cars were doing 150, like a pack of 10-12 of them, right up to Albany where they slowed down. And we weren't overtaking many people so I assume people generally speed there. And these weren't boy racers, many utes and sedans.

Also anyone manage to avoid paying by popping the front up just before the cameras?

No shortage of cops in South Auck, spotted some on my way into work tonight
Be bloody chaos if they took them from there though!
Still haven’t been through that tunnel.
Don’t like going north…

Yup everyone speeds between Silverdale and Albany, it's great. Stick in a pack and you're golden.
