Speed Camera Or Red Light Camera

[libardi]

looks like its a skid camera. catches you kicking the clutch round that corner...

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

[reNEGaDe88]

Agreed, its a hoon camera. Detected tyre smoke to catch people doing skids. ACA has run out of footage. You can only show that yellow R34 so many times

Hmmmmmmm it faces away from the lights pointing towards the hill im confuzzled fixed Speed camera maybe??? Anyone know what this?? Clearly its gotta be something to do with revenue raising in some way jk's

Has to be a speed camera. It doesn't look like it's before an intersection so it can't catch people running a red. It seems like the government is just trying to not make it less obvious. I mean how easy is it to look at each side of a intersection to see if there is a camera and then slow down when you see it. All cameras are meant to have warning sigs at least 100 meters before the camera on each side of the road, so maybe check the sign and it will tell you. If it says something like 'safety camera operates in this area' than it's a speed camera, or both.

agreed, nah didnt see the signs just yet i acutally work near here too, however when i was driving i saw them installing it today.

I think its a speed camera, wasnt able to get a shot off it from the front will do next time i go to work

Heya

Does that rule about having a sign before and after a camera apply in WA? I don't think it does otherwise they would have them before all the multinova's and laser locations. I personally get warned by my detector then see the camera.

I think renegade is right about it being a hoon camera. That or it's a high accident area and it's a safety camera for the insurance companies.

Fixed speed cameras WTF When did that happen?

[dan_the_man]

From main roads:

The device in question is a ANPR camera (Automatic Number Plate Recognition). Main Roads has installed 3 of these cameras along Leach Highway at the following locations: Leach Hwy / North Lake RdLeach Hwy / Stock RdLeach hwy / Carrington Rd They have been installed to try and determine if travel times of heavy vehicles can be accurately estimated across these three locations on Leach Hwy. The trial will be running for approximately 6 months. The information gathered will not be used for speed enforcement and private information will not be passed on to a third party.
