    Yep, the signs all got taken down years ago.
    Not over here! There are the very large white signes with blue checkers on the top and bottom. The signs reads, "Speed Cameras Used in NSW" and "Speed Camera Ahead" then "Speed Camera 24 Hrs - Heavy Fines and Loss of Licence". There's be a ton of speed zone signs as well, such as 80km/hr or 110km/hr.

    Then, voila! A grey box on a pole, generally around a blind corner, and followed shortly thereafter by a another blind corner. At night, the speed cameras sit under a bright white light, so you can't miss them!

    Aren't Aussies wonderful! Of course, once past the cameras, it's back to an average 140 km/hr in a 110 km/hr freeway. That's just the small cages too BTW...

    They've also got these huge Billboards along the freeways with a picture of a speedo that say, "You're doing $275..."

    Drove a car round the gold coast a few years back on a family holiday.

    HATED it.

    Every couple of metres the limit would change 50 - 60 - 70 - 80 - 70 - 60 - 50 etc.

    Spent the whole time (apart from getting lost) freakin' about missing a change from 60 to 50...
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

    Might be worth a try, but Id say youre more likley to loose your licience, and maybe end up in an asylum as well.
