Sh1t.. When did that change? What happens to all the small business owners with fleet cars out on the road? Do they have to take the points if they can't work out which one of their workers was driving the car? What happened to innocent until proven guilty? So they don't car who was driving - they just want the $ obviously...

Yet another reason for me to say Perth laws are a maggot on the polished turd called our freedom here in Oz.. You can't do anything in this town without some idiot telling you how to do it "safely".  

For example - my gf wasn't allowed to take 10 bricks she bought from a brickyard unless she tied a rope in front of them so they couldn't slide forward and covered them. So she put a piece of nylon in front and a tshirt over the bricks. How the f*k is that safe? Why should someone be telling her how to do transport 10 bricks? Apparently it's a law in Perth?

f*kin stupid F*kers... We're all being brainwashed. Perth will be a true old person's retirement town within the next 10 years. Mark my words!

So true.

mmm sounds like the ones have have in victoria. Although they are even more sneaky, can be any type of car parked on the side of the road, claped out bomb, commodore, even see a hz ute with the camera gear on it. they are really easy to pick on major roads though... oh let me see car parked in emergency lane, slow down to have a look.... what this black bar on the front. ahh camera.

Good thing is you can actually see these camera cars instead of the mulitnovas on the highways. gives you more time to slow down.

Yeh too true, i always slow down for emergency lane ppl. Ever since i was drving along and some ****tard in teh emergency lane figures that he/she will pull out into the left lane before gathering momentum, which im sure we all know is downright stupid. Indicator goes on and u have a car doing 20kmhr 50m ahead, do the math.

The one i saw over east was on a hyundai softroader

multinova cameras use only a 35mm lens so to get you clearly you need to be within 50mt of it to register that you are speeding then when you get within 20 mt it will then take your happy pic but if you have seen the camera in time and apply the brakes then it can not get a clear and accurate reading as it needs to take 3 pics of the car and all 3 pics must have the same speed recorded on it....

with the 3 lanes thing it still works but not as effectively which is why from time to time you will see the cameras on the other side of the road

i just came across one of these new cameras today on Albany Hwy.. was fixed on the roof of a police car parked on the verge..  

no signs at all tho

Saw that one too, your right was no signs :D lucky the car in front was going like 40km or else i would have got done

Remember people, they are in WA to SAVE LIVES!!!!!!!!

(which is why a very big majority of them are used where there is very unlikely to be a fatal accident, let alone an accident).

Just too bad that they resort to sneak tactics yet again to raise even more money, but it is just a thing we will have to get used to I'm afraid.

Call it fascist if u will but ppl still accept it as commonplace, nobody has a big enough petition yet to do anything about it. Remember these laws are passed through the house of reps and they represent us....... hmm but who pays their wages? ;) bit of conflict of interest there eh. All the fines go to their soft dollar benefits, mmmm sheep skin chairs.

I really dont see a problem with this kinda thing, its the game we play when we break the road rules. Trouble is i reckon this kind of action makes citizens disrespect the law and therefore it enforcers. "Its all about respect right, u respect me and ill respect u" :P thats falling apart.

Still next time i see one ill grill the cops for what its about, they generally dont mind having a chat.

I think you have to be doing well over 300kmh for this to happen... maybe they are just really slow with sending the fines out. It took 4 months before I got one once

yeah, me and some friends have done the maths before and it came out that you have to be going the speed of sound for it to miss you or to get blured.

it's called "duty of care laws" thanks to those ****ing idiot lawyers who devise never ending money spinning laws to fill their pockets with.

    • Very nice - I also have a 92 GTST and hardly see any others around these days
    • When I need something else to edit, I use Movavi. A friend who does video editing on a daily basis recommended me) it's an easy video cutter to use for beginners
    • I need to edit some videos for work but I'm not good at all this. Which video editor can you recommend?
    • I think you're really missing the point. The spec is just the minimum spec that the fuel has to meet. The additive packages can, and do, go above that minimum if the fuel brand feels they need/want to. And so you get BP Ultimate or Shell Ultra (or whatever they call it) making promises to clean your engine better than the standard stuff....simply because they do actually put better additive packages in there. They do not waste special sauce on the plebian fuel if they can avoid it. I didn't say "energy density". I just said "density". That's right, the specific gravity (if you want to use a really shit old imperial description for mass per unit volume). The density being higher indicates a number of things, from reduces oxygen content, to increased numbers of double bonds or cyclic components. That then just happens to flow on to the calorific value on a volume basis being correspondingly higher. The calorific value on a mass basis barely changes, because almost all hydrocarbon materials have a very similar CV per kg. But whatever - the end result is that you do get a bit more energy per litre, which helps to offset some of the sting of the massive price bump over 91. I can go you one better than "I used to work at a fuel station". I had uni lecturers who worked at the Pt Stanvac refinery (at the time they were lecturing, as industry specialist lecturers) who were quite candid about the business. And granted, that was 30+ years ago, and you might note that I have stated above that I think the industry has since collected together near the bottom (quite like ISPs, when you think about it). Oh, did I mention that I am quite literally a combustion engineer? I'm designing (well, actually, trying to avoid designing and trying to make the junior engineer do it) a heavy fuel oil firing system for a cement plant in fricking Iraq, this week. Last week it was natural gas fired this-that. The week before it was LPG fired anode furnaces for a copper smelter (well, the burners for them, not the actual furnaces, which are just big dumb steel). I'm kinda all over fuels.
    • Well my freshly rebuilt RB25DET Neo went bang 1000kms in, completely fried big end bearing in cylinder 1 so bad my engine seized. No knocking or oil pressure issue prior to this happening, all happened within less than a second. Had Nitto oil pump, 8L baffled sump, head drain, oil restrictors, the lot put in to prevent me spinning a bearing like i did to need the rebuild. Mechanic that looked after the works has no idea what caused it. Reckoned it may have been bearing clearance wrong in cylinder 1 we have no idea. Machinist who did the work reckoned it was something on the mechanic. Anyway thats between them, i had no part in it, just paid the money Curiosity question, does the oil system on RB’s go sump > oil pump > filter > around engine? If so, if you had a leak on an oil filter relocation plate, say sump > oil pump > filter > LEAK > around engine would this cause a low oil pressure reading if the sensors was before the filter?   TIA
