    I was also disappointed at the thread - here I was thinking you had REALLY been flashed at!

    You could be lucky - do they send out tickets to EVERY driver over the speed limit or is it the top whatever percentage that day? I have been flashed a couple of times and never got a ticket, so I wonder if it goes off every time someone exceeds the limit even if it's only by a few kms?
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    LOL... my friends and I go a lil crazy on bowling road trips... always lots of interesting pics come outta them and videos...
    I took half an eyebrow off the first person to crash out last time...

    Just been looking at places to stay down there... last time was in petone, time before was.... paraparaumu (long dr to porirua each morning/afternoon).... comp in porirua this time... somewhere in johnsonville seems to be the one thats winning at the mo. a hotel in the city taking second place... but I want a spa lol... im paying... so I choose....

    I think my mates are trying to organise me this time tho.. instead of leaving it till the last minute as I usually do...

    Hey.... Is Paremata on the wellington side of the coastal highway??...
    I dont remember.... n there is a place there that looked ok... with spa etc... but I dont wanna drive for ages every morning at the crack of a sparrows fart

    You have Porirua, then Paremata, then Plimmerton, then Pukerua Bay - all the P places! Wellington must be the P capital of NZ!

    Porirua and Paremata are only minutes apart - unless it's peak hour traffic when it could take you about half an hour! Watch out along that stretch of motorway though, the police college is just across the road and they often use it to demonstrate ticketing procedures to the newbies!

    Rodney District obviously doesn't have a P in it, but it sure seems to have a lot of them dang p-labs being discovered. The poor detectives are pretty busy up this way catching them country druggies on top of all the other crap they have to deal with.... anyway back to camera vans..... I hear riding/driving past schools has almost become a hanging offence!

    The operator can hit a button on the computer to make the camera take a photo of the next vehicle. Maybe there was suspicious activity? Sure it wasnt you that was flashing?

    Maybe he just thought you were a stunner then?

    The flash units have an orange cover over the front of them and from memory mount on the towbar if the boot is closed
