    So did you send the photo to the LTSA ? It would be interesting to hear the response.

    Funny I was passed by a guy on a Moto Guzzi and I was doing about 140km at the time,this was out the back of Masterton and he'd been introduced to me as Paul in NZ
    guess my speedo must be out.

    Shit me mate that's not far off the mark.

    Sent the photos to the LTSA and they replied

    "fuck off Jimbo. You are always sending us dumb shit. Slow the fuck down and you won't spend your days filling out claim forms."

    I guess they're getting a bit militant these days.

    I saw the "red van" today on Western Motorway in the Hutt. Caught it out the side of my eye as I went past (doing 95km/h I might add like the good citizen I am).

    I would have thought that location was pretty covert so took a photo on the way back.

    Rang the Infringement Bureau who advised that the vehicle must be visible at a 90 degree angle. I take it that means as you are going past. I was also told that they are not allowed to be 'camoflauged'. The pleb on the phone didn't sound too sure of these criteria, but on the face of it the camera I saw today was ok in terms of location.

    taking pictures is much less subtle then shooting out there tyres anyhows - id like to know where speed cameras are lurking, my mates tell me if they no im going that way. Also scrap the radar idea - get a jammer, they work better. Also dont stop (fullstop)
    Do you like watching the weather report? Well shut up then cos this is our camera report. Besides there's no fun with speed cameras - no chase, no thrill - just a letter saying, do not collect $200, do not pass go, go to jail

    I would have been pissed if he was pointing the other way, but as bikes don't have plates at the front. I wouldn't worry..

    Green van against a green vegatative backdrop and they reckon it's not camouflaged. They should paint them high vis yellow. And put flags on em, and have tied down blimps like in car yards so you can see them from km's away.
