Wheelie Bin Speed Cameras Hit Sa

[nos man]

Thats exactly my point.

Speed has never ever killed anyone.

Except maybe the drug.

it's like how they say modified cars kills! it's not the car or the speed! it's the drivers incompetents!

[syx]

comparing us to germany which is a small rich country isn't really fair. I'm sure our roads have to cover a hell of a lot more distance than theirs do.

stick to the old 60 80 and 100, nice and simple

I agree 100% with going back to the old speed limits. Near me there are parallel roads that alternate between 50 & 60 zones. Same as going into the city through the parklands. I never remember which road is 50 and which is 60. But it's cheaper to fit a new sign than actually repair the roads.

Yeah but they have millions of more cars on the road.

Also their drivers are much better taught. I takes much longer get your license and costs a fair bit too!! but at least they drive much better and sensibly then us.

I say if you see one of these you should pull over up the road walk back and dispose of your half full cup of coke into it.

Or if it's near a hill...........

Actually I remember reading that Germany has more kilometres of actual roadways than Australia and most other contries. Enough to go around the equator 5 times IIRC. Although Germany itself is smaller than Australia it's still pretty bloody big.

Speed Camera revenue has hit an all time low. It wont take long before some guy chains the bin to his towbar and goes for a drive.

I can't see how it promotes slowing down. Go to the eastern states and there are warnings everywhere that raise the awareness of speeding. In SA? Ah just fine em later... bastards.

[SAGTS-4]

One of my mates cousins smashed a hidden speed camera and it started flashing like crazy tacking photos. Just a warning dont do that cause they weill see you :@ lol

^^^^^

That's a great idea

How about a peaceful protest. We can all sit of 40km/h and watch the traffic back up. If traffic is reduced to 40 across Adelaide, they wont be raising much revenue.

But then again, they'll probably just reduce the speed limit to 30 and give us the "Speed Kills" crap again.

i signed! but i don't know! the govt would see this as a good way to make a lot of money so maybe they'll just throw this petition out of the window!

[Madaz]

online petitions mean jack

especially from petitiononline.com

they once clocked a bog standard 70's Toyota Corolla doing 200km/h driven by a 30 something year old chick - the car has a top speed of about 160km/h and considering it's age it's highly unlikely it could do even that.

I remember that one.

But yes... those middle aged women, they do fly around, especially in car parks! I was almost cleaned up by one a day ago. :S
