Dear Bully Thank you for your email concerning Multanova speed cameras and the Road Traffic Amendment (Impounding and Confiscation of Vehicles) Act 2004. Please accept my apology for the delay in responding. The Western Australia Police Service advises that evidence from crash investigation continues to justify the inclusion of speeding behaviour as a major focus of Western Australia’s road safety strategy. University studies have indicated that the risk of casualty resulting from crashes approximately doubles for every five kilometres per hour a driver increases their speed above the set speed limit. Accordingly, the Road Traffic Code 2000 makes it an offence to exceed the set speed limits by any amount. With respect to the disclosure of speed camera locations, the Police service made the decision to have a blackout on media advertising during the Christmas/New Year period in order to create a heightened sense of road safety and awareness for motorists. It was believed that this blackout would add to the deterrent effect of speed cameras as it serves to raise awareness that speeding motorists can be caught anywhere at anytime. Revenue was not a factor in the decision and the Police Service takes into account a number of factors when determining speed camera locations. These factors include evaluation of fatal crashes, serious crashes, knowledge of frequent speeding, complaints received and operational requirements. The Police Service advise that the media blackout over the Christmas/New Year period appears to have been successful in that fewer motorists were detected speeding during the media blackout period than during the remainder of December. Despite what appears to be an initial success, the WA Police Service is cognisant that other factors may have also impacted on the volume of speeding motorists including the Christmas Road Safety Campaign and double demerit points. They further advise that they are yet to determine future strategies for the advertising of speed camera locations. Regarding the “Anti Hoon Laws”, you may not be aware that this legislation was introduced in response to the unacceptable number of deaths and injuries that have occurred on Western Australian roads as a result of dangerous and reckless driving. Approximately 60 of the 179 road deaths in 2003 were attributable to reckless and dangerous driving. The legislation is directed at drivers who indulge in illegal street racing, time trials and burnouts, and is designed to modify irresponsible behaviour. As at 31 January 2005, 153 vehicles had been impounded. A large number of these drivers were exceeding the speed limit by up to 60 km per hour in built up areas, which typically have speed zones of 50 or 60km per hour. There is a fundamental obligation on the part of a driver, when granted a licence, to drive safely at all times, within the limitations of the prevailing road conditions and with due consideration to other road users. The minority of irresponsible road users who abuse the privilege of holding a driver’s licence by driving dangerously have necessitated the introduction of this legislation. I trust you will appreciate that the legislation has been introduced in an effort to save lives and injury by removing dangerous and thoughtless drivers from our roads. Yours sincerely HON MICHELLE ROBERTS MLA MINISTER FOR POLICE AND EMERGENCY SERVICES

Its great that you did the course as an ex defensive driving instructors i wish more would - i taught both my sons pusle braking etc when they had their "L"s. The device fitted to the car was probally called the "Skid car" system where the instructor can adjust to simulate all types of road conditions and create over steer and understeer in the vehicle. Any way well done for doing the course just remember like all training you have to apply the techniques learnt everyday to get the max benifit from what you have learnt. I recommend a refresher session every few years

Good luck with the insurance it will cost him buckets, but he is stupid not to insure it. You will find most companys dont do 3rd party insurance on anything valued over about 5k anyway. Tell him to hook up with this forum.

I have driven the Nullabour over 13 times - long yes - boring never. (if you want boring drive over the Hay plain) and rule number one is dont driver during sunset and sunrise especially if it has rained recently as it will be Roo city. Its an awesome trip and i would do it again tomorrow but it needs planning to do safely. I normally plan to get to Ceduna and then leave there early in the morning as between Ceduna and Yalata the Roos are not too bad, that way you can make it to Norseman by nightfall and then can drive into Perth the next day. I find the Police to be good i been pulled over on almost every trip for a "Licence check" they normally want to se if you have a planned destination for the day and i usually sit on 140Kph going accross so as long as you are not being a outright idiot and doing 160 u should be fine. I believe you can now get Premium unleaded all the way also. Enjoy the Adventure
