Heads up all you Hoons

[slimjim]

should carry a bright red spray can....stop and spray rear window....

The operators sit in the back with the cameras. And the windows are so heavily tinted that you cant see em.

the reason that they use Mitsubishi vans is that they have such shit motors that crack heads so often that the sight of an L300 van on the side of the road is less likely to look out of place like a nice reliable Toyota or Nissan

how do I know this?... simple I have two of the firkin things on my lawn with cracked heads!

this is probably a dumb question, but... if you are coming up to a speed camera (like pointing at you from the front) and it flashes you, how could it identify you when you dont have a number plate on the front of yer bike?

[Matt_TG]

The operator could note down your number I guess.

This has crossed my mind as well....Tell ya what - next time we see one, we'll send you screaming past and see if you get the ticket......yes? Then we'll know.........

Those in the Birkdale Gfield area.
- Kaipatiki Road, just before the roundabout after crossing the bridge.
- If not above, the dip headed to gfield outside the shell station by the top of eskdale reserve.
- Behind shell, on top of esk reserve.


Goddamnit, we really need a sticky of where cameras are in each area!

Highly unlikely that it could. It doesn't pay to rub peoples noses in that though, halfwit politicians in Oz want bikes to be fitted with front plates again. If Andy Knackerhead and his mates hear about that we could have a problem.

In my experience, the operator may not be visible because he's been taken home for lunch by his missus. Or he may be sleeping the lunch off. He may also be browsing in a nearby shop or indulging in discourse with the yokels.

Don't get too hung up on the "flash". The locals disconnected the flash in the daytime because too many people wanted to argue. Don't ask me what they wanted to argue about, I've never been able to figure that one out.
