Speed Limit Enforcement

You're dead right there on both points.

Unlike some of the odd things that state governments cough up, I found that I liked this initiative, which makes a great point: Office of Road Safety

(No helicopter gunships, though!)

Lacking imagination....:p

Three tanks, containing crotyl mercaptan, isopentyl mercaptan, and methyl crotyl disulfide, plus a blending valve to roughly mix them equally together... and a jet sprayer to atomise the resulting oily brew... aimed so as to be drawn into the cabin of the Idiot behind.

The smell can be detected for over a kilometre, so at 5 or so metres it should be devastating. :twisted::twisted::twisted:

Their car will stink for days, if not weeks.

Their car??? Think LandCruiser, or roadtrain!

Does it matter?- they won't be in it.... doubled over by the roadside, heaving and choking.....:twisted::twisted::twisted::twisted:

BWAaaaHahahahahahaaha.....

yeah - I love em too. Was following a heavily lifted & modded 100 series for a good part of the journey home to Kal yesterday afternoon and my radar detector was set off twice when oncoming cops turned it on him. He only got pulled over once out of the two pings - must have been lucky on the first one.

Actually I didn't think I'd see him again after first coming across him in he hills between Perth & Northam - he was struggling to get up a hill and sitting behind a bus in one of the overtaking lanes when I went past him. But he caught me once we got out of the hills and went screaming past like there was no tomorrow - so I followed at a respectable distance. :angel:

Yes, it would be a lifted Cruiser being driven like that. That type of Outback Hero will be up here for tourist season at any moment. Always amusing.

Id be careful, the current radar and laser speed detection sets have inbuilt feature which 'radar detection detector alerts' (even im confused!)

It comes up with at least an RFI indicator and that gives enough reasonable cause to stop you and turn your car inside out looking for it.. heafty fine and confiscation if detected.

We used to get a lot of them... Just a friendly warning, dont get caught!!!:eek:

Thanks. I couldn't remember if they were legal or not. I just keep to the speed limit . . . though it's not always easy to tell what it is in places like Broome.

I have an old Yanky detector on my bike, great for finding BP servos. :D
