T0nyGTSt Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 I cut thru Olympic Village (usually Holker and Birnie Ave.) to avoid Parramatta Rd. My car does not ride on that stretch of Parramatta Rd. well at all. I'm guaranteed to see a police car in Olympic Village. Not running mind you but rather pulling over some poor bastard. And they don't care who they pull over... I've seen a VL Walkinshaw Commodore with a 'ful s1k bro', a clapped out Corona wagon with a woman, an old guy in a diesel 'Cruiser, sales rep. in a VX Commodore. You name it, pulled over for some traffic citation. And that's just this week! Cops know it's easy pickings for people over the 60 limit, esp. now with so many people going to Newington. T.

Duncan Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 I saw on the news tonight that the speed limit has been lowered to 40 from 50 in North Sydney council. They're going down, not up.

Merli Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 40? well, I guess around Nth Sydney, there isn't much of a chance to go more than 40km/h most times anyway... Still ridiculous though.

Guest DFLASH Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 they have to make back the money used to put the stupid signs up. i'm sure parking inspectors booking a few cars here and there would also pay for this. I always see inspectors bookign cars in the back lane behind miller st. Lucky my company pays for my parking under the BEA building Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/16074-be-careful-thru-olympic-village/#findComment-335648 Share on other sites More sharing options...
