yep another year and more revenue :roll:
the Vic guvmint is about to switch on a number of additional fixed speed/red light cameras here around Melbourne

some I have no problem with...to catch redlight runners is good for us riders
others are blatant money grabbers like the new fixed cameras (yes...MORE!) on Eastlink

locations are here -
http://www.justice.vic.gov.au/wps/wcm/c ... Locations/

watch out for them or pay the price :(

Why has that link got the word "justice" in it? :?
There's also a brand new one at the intersection of Melb rd and Sparks roads Geelong (combined red/speed)

Crap that's a lot of cameras :?

I just clicked on the link where they show the mobile speed camera locations for this month- there's hundreds, it's pointless to even show it!

That's alot of cameras, NSW is trying to catch up to Vic i think :roll: :lol: Cameras slow you down for the few seconds it takes to go past them, HWY Patrol driving in traffic slows everyone down for entire time they are driving in the traffic.

because it's hosted on a server within the "Department of Justice", however that's as close to justice as it'll ever get imho.
