Vic speed cameras signed now?

[Shifty1]

Was driving home from work the other day and I saw a sign: "SPEED TESTING AHEAD"

Is this the requirement now?

i think its the speed testing as in the led sign things on the bridges that tell you youre going to fast or whatever...

A couple years ago the opposition (in vic) promised to put signs up whever there are speed cameras...

Some now have "traffic satfy cameras in the area" or something like that... Which normally means red light camera at the next set of lights, but now there are speed/red light cams popping up all over the place...

They SHOULD put signs up... even if there isnt a camera in a spot, put a sign up, people slow down...

Oh wait... that means they wont make any money... damn... I suppose that means we can scrap that idea

This would be the camera that instantly checks your number plate against a data base of 'persons of interest'. Checks to see if the car has unpaid fines or the owner has warrants etc.

All they are doing is testing the camera,they do this often near where i travel.It is not warning you they are there so you slow down.

oh FFS, even if there were signs money would still be made. I am sick of hearing revenue this revenue that, if people are still stupid enough to speed knowing perfectly well how many cams are around then they deserved to be caught. If you DO NOT speed you WILL NOT get fined, why is this so hard to comprehend?

Because no matter how fast you are going or how much traffic is on the road, there is always one D***head that has to be in front of you.

speed vans in canberra have had them since they were introduced a number of years ago. they say 'your speed has been checked' and have the speed limit posted on the sign
