Catch Up!!!!!!!!!

WTF are you On Rossi?????

Us Aussies have been shooting signs and speed camera's for years!!! It's a much quicker method, and if you're a good shot, you don't even have to slow down, let alone stop n get out!!!!!

The GATSO was invented by Dutch company Gatsometer BV , founded by the 1950s rally driver Maurice Gatsonides..... and it's initial use was for monitoring his speed round the race track.....

but you know what is really cool about this thread...... 54 yrs ago I was born in Nuneaton and it's the first time I have ever seen the town mentioned in print.... So I'm probably descended from a long line of GATSO vandals..... it makes me so proud.........

Hmm the prefered methods of despatcing a gatso seems to be throw a used tyre over it and set it on fire closly followed by high explosives, i supose this would send a message eventually.

I prefer the snipper method - even paint ball would put it out of action if the aim is right

in TRUE Aussie style
..it has to a .22 rifle

and the bloke who was using the one of those
for target practice on the Geelong Road cameras
...should be applauded

Now there seems to be a trend with a lot of these pics

well Rossi you see us Aussies done need to catch up as we seem to be smart enough not to .... 1 have the cameras close enough to the ground so the people can set fire to them and 2.... seem to invest in more that 1 bag of rapid set concrete to mount them in the ground

so at the end of the day Who need to catch up?
hehehehhehe have to admit i may have thought of this once or twice myself

Now heres a trick for you all to try
Next time you see a camera car on the freeway ........ pull up in the emergency lane right in front of it .......... and hit the hazard lights ........

it takes about 10 seconds for the operator to get out of the car and ask you to move

to which you answer ............. i've got a problem with my car that is why i pulled over ......... not because i am parked illegally on a freeway
they will pack up and move on

or do as I did today........
stopped the car alongside the camera car(illegally parked on the nature strip) got the camera from the laptop bag in the boot of my car and took a few happy snaps of his car.
What you doing? he asked......"getting evidence" says I and got back in the car and drove home
