SA laws have recently changed and now car-mounted speed cameras are no longer required to display any signage declaring their presence..

Some of those pics are gold!
The latest craze in Victoria is these new cameras that look like a power poles with a camera built into them. Or I've also seen a couple that are built into a fake drain in the gutter of the road. Yet they still claim they aren't revenue raising!
wow m8 thats interesting do u have a pic of these cameras? i would love to see one??

Hated Sydney speed camera torched on The Spit Rd, Mosman

SYDNEY'S newest criminals - the speed camera torchers - have struck again in spectacular fashion, wiping out one of the city's most hated revenue-raising cameras.

The speed camera in Mosman is the fifth camera believed to have been set alight by vandals on Sydney's north shore in the past two months.

A city-bound fixed speed camera halfway up Spit Hill is believed to have been deliberately set alight at about 2am today.

Police attended the scene, taking photos and scouring the scene for evidence.

It was the fifth speed camera attack in the area since the start of June.

A fixed camera on Warringah Rd at Forestville was set on fire a fortnight ago.

At the start of July, vandals torched the north-bound camera on Pittwater Rd outside Narrabeen Lakes Public School.

And another two speed cameras, outside Narrabeen North Public School and Narrabeen Sports High, were set alight at the beginning of June.

Police said the Spit Hill camera had suffered smoke damage in the fire.

It has been estimated the damage bill for each of the four previous attacks would run between $15,000-$35,000 per camera.

Spit Rd speed traps have long drawn the ire of motorists, with the State Government removing one camera in 2005 to prevent drivers being caught twice for the same speeding offence.

Another camera on Spit Hill removed in 2005 was found to be defective after it booked ``speeding'' buses that were incapable of reaching the speeds captured on camera.

The controversial Spit Rd camera was ranked as one of the top 10 revenue raisers in the state in 2006-07, earning more than $1 million that year.

Ha love it. The ones on Page 2 around walton-on-the hill, Banstead & chessington etc were near my old stomping ground... Once went through the one in chessington (they had changed the speed limit from 60mph to 40mph!) drove back and noticed that it was burnt out. winning.

I don't see the point in destroying the camera, not only is it likely to land you in front on a magistrate, but it just means the government has to use more tax dollars replacing it. Nobody has won anything by doing it. So you have vented some anger, good for you, now go see a shrink about your anger issues and stop being a tosser.
