Point To Point Speed-spotting By Cessna

[BezerkR32]

ahhh, cops in space, they had this years ago in warrawong when i first got my liscense. was found not to be cost effective.

im more worried about the point to point thing happening on the m7. that is accurate.

ill be doing as liitle driving as possible over the next 2 weeks...massive police presence already being felt in the gong.

ps, why cant we use the word cop lol.

does the point to point thing really exist on the M7? I've never been booked there. Not that I ever speed of course....

and I'm the admin cause I give good backrubs.

I wonder what the police cessna is like? The cessna sales office is just down the block from my office here in circular quay and it's pretty flash. you can get some pretty swanky fitouts. did they buy an ex drug plane? or the drug boat of their dreams? they probably have drug shoes and drug dresses too...

The point to point speeding thingy for the M7 has been a rumour ever since the M7 became operational

I can confirm policeman officers do set up speed traps on the M7 though

As well as bikie cops on the M7/M5

As well as basically every other road in NSW...

actually - the real danger in sydney is the 50 new speed cameras where there used to be red light cameras. I don't know where they are, and I don't know how (if?) they are signposted

so be careful places that used to be license safe may be no longer.

I love the fact that when the road toll goes up......they try more of what is not working! go genuises!

They are sign posted "Safety Camera Ahead" which can mean red light, or both red light and speed.

I never used to have any probs with these.

But now, I have to be careful 'gunning the amber' and getting pinged for a speed violation in the process - thru complacency & a car that can squirt.

'Safety Camera Ahead' = What a load of 'Spin'!

[bloodsword27]

has it considered periods where you overtake? ....or increase and decrease in area speed limits?

[runnin4life]

has it considered periods where you overtake

pretty confident in the eyes of the law you shouldn't be speeding at all, regardless.

mate of mine is facing loosing his licence because he was rushing to get to an accident that happened on the opposite side of the road.

well in regards to this topic i read in the daily telegraph yesterday or the day before that the Cessna hasn't even left the ground. Because of the bad weather its been grounded meaning it hasn't even made the government any money yet

what a waste of money

[niZmO_Man]

Yeah because fixing the roads that cause accidents is a big waste of money, doesn't generate any money either.

[PIG747]

thats what they were sayin in the newspaper

dunc, they are signed as 'safety camera ahead' and there is a list on the RTA website of the new locations.

ugh I want my tax dollars back so I can use the funds to fill in the 11ty billion pot holes on my daily commute to work

They've been using 'SCARECROW POLICE CARS' instead - stationary vehicles with uniform/hat on the driver's seat.

Locations so far...

i) M4 just west of the Cumberland Hwy

ii) Hume Hwy

Any others?

[CARSICK]

Are those new white lines across the M4 eastbound for point-to-point?

Just noticed them for the 1st time.

[itease]

saw these yesterday too they are every 500metres. hope there not for point to point but who knows

[MaTBoY]

I'm pretty sure the new 500m lines on the M4 are to help the cessna book people. If it's taking you less than 16 seconds to go between lines you're going to be in trouble.

These Scarecrow police cars are actually checking for cars with out registration.
