As Fatz said, the signs are a courtesy and not a legal requirement. They are not a gazetted traffic sign in the road rules 2008 (However the speed limit symbol on the sign is). There is no excemption from a speeding offence in the Road Transport (Safety and Traffic Management) Act 1999 if signs arent present.

The only sign legally required to enforce a speed limit apart from the default 50km/h limit (Which requires no signage at all) Is a speed restriction or derestriction sign.

someone who who knoes the law

Hehe. Seen it tried in a few courts. Funnily often referred to as ignorance. Good to watch but ends like every other train smash, Horrifying but you just cant help but look. :santa:

If the matter is proven and you are dealt with by way of a S10 dismissal. If this is the case you can appeal to the RTA to get your points back.

If no prima facie is reached and the matter is dismissed then you retain your points

start of school they will be opperational

simple as that

has school started!!!????

work it out!

i dunno if your post was suppose to be sarcastic......

but if not.....

what we meant by up and running is that... weeks ago.....the 2nd part of the camera...(the smaller Lense) was missing with wires hanging out. and obviously it needs both larger and smaller lense box to work. so visually you can tell its not working.

but recently what i think people are telling us is that they have completed it physically by appearance.

but school hasnt started just yet.....

but the camera is NOT just a School Zone camera...it also works as a Standard Speed Camera depending on the time of day.

so in otherwords.....the other school zone cameras throught NSW currently STILL WORK.... but its just during the schedule during school hours.....since its holidays...it will be a normal speed camera at 60km/h.

so perhaps they got it up and running but obviously they shouldnt snap you at 60km during school times.

Even when they are signposted the RTA will generally have a lead in period where the camera is operational but infringement notices are not issued. This may run for up to 6 weeks and is part of the policy regarding public awareness when installing traffic enforcement cameras.

as i said before they will issued warning letters for teh first month when they are turned on

however if you go threw at 150 dont excpect to get a warning notice

;)

yeah personally i wouldnt risk it at all......

even though the cameras looks very much FULLY operational...due to the fact both cameras are up and the 3 Warning signs towards the cameras are posted...

but the only thing is that the Electronic signs say "commencing soon"

either way i slow down just incase... i tend to think of the worst case scenario.

its not worth it if it just takes you 2 seconds to slow down at that point.

All school zones should have flashing lights to warn drivers to slow down, and now they can have. See www.schoolzonelights.com.au for details. Will put a bit of a dent in the Government's coffers and help make school kids safer.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
