Absolutely agree on that one. But without unmarked cars, you'll never catch these pr!cks, because they are all on their best behavior while the "real" cop car or uniform is visible.. More unmarked cars, more plain clothed cops too for that matter. I like the red light camera idea, and I...

A lot of people don't though. We've all seen the idiot dangerous driver on the road around us, and we've all either thought, or said out loud; "Where are the cops when you need them?", or (in my case) "hope they wrap themselves around a pole" and so on. This is why they now have these sneaky...

Yeah, because us Vic drivers are way worse than any other Australian drivers. http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/[email protected]/Lookup/by%20Subject/1301.0~2012~Main%20Features~Accidents,%20injuries%20and%20fatalities~189

school crossings On a slightly different tack, but still related to driver's attitudes towards being caught doing the wrong thing, and only thinking of their own sphere.... Some time ago there was a discussion about school crossings and how to stop speeders going through these areas and...

Maybe stick to the speed limits - which are designed to protect lives - and all this guff you've described above, becomes moot. Seriously.

No worries; was calling for opinions about it all, was all. It wasn't just some guy - it was several. The interesting thing was that every one was whining. I don't reckon it is baiting. If we all did the right thing, there would be no need for cameras and unmarked cars..... The...

Aaron, sorry pal, but you are being ridiculous...1984; now I've heard it all. Speed limits are there for a reason - safety; for all. Therefore, to make sure the wider community sticks to what is a sensible speed for the area and conditions, the Gubbmint has decided on X speed for various...

And, a yellow light means SPEED UP to get through before it turns red! :rolleyes:

No; this was actually on the normal 6 o'clock news.

This is my only gripe about the use of cameras. And, I see three (parked cars on the side of the road) in our area which are in exactly the same spot almost every week of the year, at various times and days. It absolutely only for revenue raising. All three are in areas where pedestrians...

Kudos. I agree. Driver training and education should be a Curriculum subject in schools. Get rid of (well; not get rid of, but make them extra curricular electives of you wish to learn them) PC subjects like social studies, or learning some obscure second/third language that no-one will ever...

An unmarked car actually catches people in the act. So do cameras. You would think that the pain of being caught, or the possibility of being caught will slow down those who are caught. We had a typical Falcodore driving bogan in our workshop the other day, who had lost his licence - too...

Was watching the teev last night and there was a story on the news about unmarked cop cars. One was shown pulled up behind another vehicle (the cop was issuing a ticket to the driver), lights flashing etc. This particular unmarked car was a white station wagon, with an "L" plate on the back...
