surely they'd want to have known why the laser was sporting a gangster lean?

cops are doing some wierd stuff atm... corner of kings / collins st today they were randomly pulling drivers over.. twas odd..

[paulr33]

i fail to see how thats odd? they are simply increasing presence on the streets, this will probably prevents more crime itself. the ideal of police back in the old days was to have a presence around so that crime/bad stuff would not occur in the first place. the idea of solving crime after it was left to a detective. they look at the crime after it has occured.

so the idea nowadays of the police is someone who reactives reactively to situation, something goes bad cops respond and act accordingly. cops should have the presence around so that hoons wont street race, people wont do doughnuts, people dont do fishtals up the street and so on...

go on them for increase presence, its what they are meant to do

[R31Nismoid]

Its actually Feb...

4 months till revenue is counted up and shared around in bonuses for the pollys.

THATS why there is presence

After July, it'll die down for the next 6 months.

Does every year

would you still think that if you were minding your own bussisness, they flagged you down and boom, defectd you for pfc/pod/ebc

[m&m]

Sorry M & M are you saying that these other locations are also currently set up or are these locations in which you have seen them in the past???

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

They are the most common,along with the Princes Hway.Have seen them set up in all 4 places mentioned in the last 3 months.Very big operations when they do,photographers,EPA and cops in "getaway" locations.

[SWC945]

yeah....

i got done aswell......

cant believe there was sooo many cops there tho!!!

Nathan,let me assure you these are prime spots.Maybe you go by in peak our traffic,they set up from about 11.00am to 2.00pm as to not affect traffic too much.

I got by on Westall Rd with about 6 cops staring with there jaws on the ground(big GT wing at the time,S15) cause their booths were full.Three weeks later I ducked into the Dingley International and spent 2 hours there.Went for a walk and they had exits covered on Centre Dandy and Lower Dandy.

[funkymonkey]

I ducked into the Dingley International

Dingley has an airport? I know its far from the city, but surely not that far?

[FATGTS-R]

I have also noticed a lot more police presence on the roads lately including a lot more vic roads defect stations for heavy vehicles.

In the last two weeks alone 3 guys at work have copped defect stickers. None of these are modified cars, just normal daily hacks that got defected for tyres, chipped screens etc.

I would say the main cause for it is the commonwealth games around the corner in an attempt to get all the rubbish off the roads.

hah, makes sense why i dont see them, im only around there in the morning/night.

ill have to keep it in mind now, this just isnt cool

[NateR31]

i saw a new holden wraped in vicroads stickers, whats up with them, do they have the right to pull you over ect..?

[WLD747]

I drive past the eltham / research area and i have seen a cop there defecting someone yesterday and today. Hes on a bike pulling over any car they can grab thats not standard. I saw him defecting a nice Merc today. I reckon the cops are out in full force at the moment so take care guys.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

no i would not. i am well aware of the laws my car is violating and merely getting caught does not put them at fault or make them any better or worse. the more presence they have the bettter i say it will be

Very true, we have had more defect stickers in the past few weeks than we normally get. Marulan in NSW is the worst though as by the time some of our trucks get to there they have developed items that go undetected in Melbourne. Nightmare and our trucks have to pass through there into Sydney.
