Yes, of course I did read that, and actually, I wrote a letter years ago for my elderly mother in law who was on a pension, and who would've had difficulty paying, so yes, I wrote a letter for her, which worked!Quote:

Without going back to read all the posts, the fine had been paid before the thread was started.Quote:

Advisory sign.. I have found that most of them are correct...Quote:

There was one up near Wongan Hills, that said 90, trouble was, at 90 my 4wd ended up on its side after going over several times... Now its an 80 sign, bit late for the others that died on that corner, considering they had done plenty of work on that corner over the years but never pulled the limit down when they added a reverse camber into the corner...
Anyway, at the end of the day, its better to have no signs then the responsibility goes back to the driver and you'll be amazed how people drive then, and no they dont all do 160, very few even get upto the state limit of 110...
Fines, laws, and police are fine for the do gooders but at the end of the day, if those rules didn't exist you would find most people are very responsible and would respect each other... The hard core crims will always be there no matter what you do but the people these things apply to and upset, are not criminals... Crims don't care and have no respect for anything or anyone, thus the laws are a sham...

look at the base of the sign.
Just looked like a pile of rocks to me... Now I have got the glass's out and zoomed in, I do see what your saying, but technically, unless your state laws recognise the sign as a speed limit, then the sign is a warning that few should ignore but road limit applies not the advisory sign...Quote:

keeping a good look out, appropriate speed for the conditions and a bit of forward thinking are much more important imho.
