Default Re: why are australian cops so strict on speed?

Oh my, new account coming right out the gate with this hot topic

Because it makes money, the vast majority of speeding fines are for under 10km/h under the limit enforced by cameras here in Victoria, that's why they dedicate so much resources to it.

You can't justify it in any way that doing 5 over the limit and having the fine issued weeks later from a camera is about safety - that's two thirds of the fines every quarter in VIC.

100% fake news,

Big hole in the VIC budget at the moment with $8-$10B/year in interest payments alone, with a government that owns no sources of revenue aside from speed cameras.

Good luck easier to set up a human colony on Mars than addressing that elephant in the room.
