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!!!.

    • interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to. 
    • I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD
    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
    • Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.
