did any1 else on here enjoy the police blitz thru caboolture as much as i did.

i saw 1 highway patrol and 2 unmarked police cars north bound, south of caboolture, and 3 normal

cars south bound 2 the north of caboolture, all with their speed guns out, spaced about 1 klm apart.

also saw about 4 driving around in caboolture pulling random ppl over.

i thought it was good because they were all occupied when i drove by them. yay.

still haven't been pulled over. (touch wood) ;):):laugh:

When it comes to police the only thing it is illegal for them to do is causing physical harm to another being in a case other then self defense. When it comes to traffic laws they are allowed to do anything that they feel is fit to do. In a instance of them being a mere k apart it would be considered smart thinking on there behalf, because a lot of us all think when we pass one car we are not likely to run into another for a while, you would be surprised how many people do get pulled over for this kind of thinking.

Little bit of a different situation but... Isn't there some law about them being set up too close to a fixed camera though?

Because aren't a lot of those fixed cameras only there due to that location is a hot spot and too dangerous for a police vehicle to be parked?

I might be totally wrong tho :nyaanyaa: lol

No infact as stated they are able to set up like that purley becuase people slow down for camera then speed up again, i don't like it but they can do it.

The best one i ever saw was on the way to work one day 1 car in the truck inspection station on ramp at burbengary then a k up the road another car in the emergency stopping area and then another 2 k later a camera

duuno what the big thing is here. I'm driving various skyline cars with no front plates( I have a trade plate.) on them right past these guys and they do not flinch

I dont think anyone mentioned anything in regards to number plates...?

Sure puts a stop to "roll on drags as soon as we pass the speed camera" though...lol

sounds like the 'boys in blue' are gearing up for Xmas. they used the same tatic on the M1 on Tue this week. also saw my first ute being used as an unmarked traffic law enforcer on Wed, near Coomera. description: white, holden, '07-'08?, after market wheels and slightly lowered from what I could see. clearly a "sucker car" hoping to activate the adrenal glands of would-be racers!!!.

    • Jump into the wasteland. Plenty of random posting/chatting going on in there.
    • I did not go to GTR Festival. It's quite a long drive and the car wasn't dialed in yet. I also wanted to see how the racing portion went before going. From what I can tell the classes were not heads up, index, or bracket - just whoever has the quickest ET wins. Never heard of that sort of thing before and maybe some people like it but it's not my cup of tea. I don't suspect I'll go if that is how the racing is done. I did get the car out three times and had issues each time. Some were my error - haven't raced the car in over two years - and others were parts. Had trouble getting the clutch to slip correctly and remembering how it was set up in the Haltech. Broke some drivetrain parts as well that couldn't be fixed in a couple days to get back out. Season definitely didn't end the way I wanted but at least the bearings are still fine! Not a fleck of material in the filter. Really hoping next year is the year I can actually test this car properly. 
    • find it funny everyone claims different fuel chains, do different things with their fuel blah blah blah. We don't have that many fuel terminals in Australia. The fuel tanker trucks drive into the terminal, fill up, and drive directly to the service station and dump out. The majority of fuel you get, is coming out of the same terminals. The variation is actually at the individual service stations and how good their tanks are, as well as how much turn over they actually have. Older fuel stations, that haven't had their tanks replaced are going to end up with the worst fuel. Also a lot of older stations have shit design, and shit maintenance, and end up with more water absorption into the tank. This is when you then get a bad batch of fuel. Other shit things happen, like tanker drivers have a f**k up, and starting to unload the wrong compartment on their truck into the wrong tank. 
    • Yeah go with that one
