    How resilient are the new safety camera trailers?

    New trailers out there, won't belong before someone takes aim at one, or sets out to destroy a lot in one hit, of course there will be supervision cameras worth thousands in the, but balaclavas are pretty cheap too.
    Whose gonna be first to deal to one?

    Call them what they are: Surveillance and Revenue Collection cameras. "Safety" is Orwellian doublethink.

    In an unrelated thought, it is cocktail night tonight and I am very partial to the ones prepared by my favourite bartender, Vyacheslav Molotov. He's a recent immigrant from Russia, of all places.

    I got a notice a few weeks ago . 65 in a 50 zone In Palmy Nth. Pioneer Highway.
    It said this is not an infringement notice. All in the name of safety !!!!! pffft.

    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

    With the state of driving in this country it won’t be long before the target audience actually drives into one. Dont think an unattended trailer chassis with new tyres and set of batteries would last long before being rehomed in rural area.
    I think they will be redundant in a few years anyway. Digital IDs and digital driver licenses will be mandatory by 2030 I reckon and include auto enforcement just like how your satnav beeps at you for speeding.

    Not helped by parking for hours in areas where if it was a contractors vehicle it would need cones, signs and flashing lights and if it was a skip permission would simply be refused. Will be interesting to see what does happen when someone inevitably ploughs into one.
