Yep, in Vic you can get done for 61kph!!  Shocked

That is the speed that the infringement is issued at! Another part of the infringement notice has the "detected" speed which is usually (but not always  Angry ) 3kph more, so to allow for instrument error! (So kind and fair arnt they??  Roll Eyes ).

So you have actually been doing the extremely dangerous speed of 4kph over, RIPPED!! Road safety my asre!?  bang head Evil

Money grabbing?? Most definitely!  Police Angry

I think anyone who has an account with macquarrie bank should move it and boycott the ratbags just for putting their hand up, super is right, they are make the beast with two backsen leeches!

I'd like to add that all coppers are not created equal, i got a healthy flash ( hi beam and 4 spotties) from a country cop today who had a radar in his prado, and i wasn't doing 3kph over either............................good to see he was either on his way home/busy responding to something else/or just not interested in writing me up cause i was on a country highway and i wasn't being silly or endangering anyone or anything.

great so the message is when I am travelling from little old SA to VIC in October I should generally do say 10km/hr under what my speedo says to be on the safe side??  Even using a GPS unit to verify sounds like a dangerous proposition as the second or so lag could cost me $$$ - nanny state sheesh!  Huh?

These posts are referring to NSW.  They are trying to steal the nanny state title from Vic.  cheeky  I usually sit right on 100kph and haven't (touch wood) had a problem with  Police. It's only when I'm doing 130kph or more that they get a bit annoyed with me.  Roll Eyes

Just remember it's 100 in Vic not 110! And don't speed past any vehicles pulled over on the side of the road.

This narrow focus is in Vic at the moment, but coming to a State near you!? (Eventually! And it wont matter who is in power!  Huh? ) Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

The big money spinners are the criminals who do less than 10kph over the limit!!  Roll Eyes

Here in the South, this group apparently makes up 70-75% of all the speeding infringements issued!  Police

Just makes you wonder about the seriousness of the authorities in regard to road tolls etc? Statistically where do most prangs occur?? Where paths of vehicles intersect of course.

Sooooo why then dont they have shitloads more speed/redlight cameras?? IF they were serious they probably would, but they wouldnt raise as much cash though, would they!?  Evil

Particularly with super dark tinted windows, and parked either at the end of a block or in a position where other vehicles cant park in front of them! waytogo Evil

speaking of laws.....

whilst I was away did we have the law introduced that trucks cannot be in the right hand lane on multilane highways anymore?

It was announced before I left.....did it go through?

(it will never be policed cause the pollies just focus on speed). Let's all drive badly at 50kph!!!! (great frickin idea!)

Its a dead set make the beast with two backsen filthy grubby politicians snout in the make the beast with two backsen trough money grab that has absomake the beast with two backsenlutely NOTHING to do with safety.

The grubs sit in their own filth, working out ways on 'how to screw money from motorists under the guise of safety'.

Trouble is WE the motoring public believe this shit that dribbles from their lying gobs, as they say, 'throw enough shit and eventually some of it will stick'.

Are but mick you are not providing any evidence.

Well take a look what sort of results they have in Victoria my friends, take a good hard look.

The sound of being booked for 4kph over 60 is totally stupid.

I MEAN really have you tried to read your Monster speedo at 60, does it really sit on 60 exactly!
Never so how can you accurately read the speedo at 60 and watch out for the cagers who are trying to kill you.  bang head

All Riders
looks like Speedo watching and not the road may become our next safety message?

Now this is a cause we can all get behind.

We don't even have to come up with lengthy reports, statistical analysis and all that other shit that is so easily manipulated and mis-represented.

It just makes sense ... clear, concise, logical, no bullshit common sense. If you are not watching the road you are driving/riding dangerously and risking people's safety ... simple. In fact so simple you would think that even a politician/road safety expert would be able to understand it.
