very simple... i personally have gotten this myself... go talk to them show there is other cars in the photo regardless of direction which can cause a refraction affect on the signal being sent from the camera and back... they will have to prove beyond all doubt that this did not happen which is not possible and they will disqualify the fine and clear your record.

It doesn't matter if the camera is only set up to measure one direction, other cars within the radar beam DO produce erroneous readings - as shown ACTUALLY HAPPENING in the first video on this page: http://www.delonixradar.com.au/speed-cameras/

I just love how people are quick to say "don't speed and just pay the fine". I wish Australia was full of more people like that...NOT

Just shut up and pay your governemnt their revenue (even if you weren't actually speeding) is what (they) want you to do. This preserves their billion dollar tax rort on drivers.

Just google "Eastlink speed camera" and see how many HUNDREDS of people are complaining about deliberately doing well under the limit (because they know the camera is there) or setting their cruise control and STILL getting fines from that one camera. But hey "don't speed can pay the fine"

Interesting how people set their cruise control on Eastlink, driving past MANY speed cameras, but it's the Wellington Road one that fines them for that magical number 108Km/h when all the other cameras dont' issue a fine??

It's also interesting how the police state that around 50% of speeding fines on Eastlink come from that one camera on Wellington Road - yet that must be normal, and not suggest a problem with that particular camera??

But "Don't speed, and pay up"

Yea right

dont speed bro. pay up

if you are really curious about this other car just get in contact with them thats when everything will be cleared out well i hope.

i have heard about these new 360 degree cameras and that can cover 4 lanes that they might be introducing. anyone else heard about it?

ok not that long ago i went through the speed camera thing and its just 2 hard to fight (im 99% that i was not speeding) but in the end i just payed the fine. if there is another car in the photo try and get the fine dismissed. but unless u have legal knowledge dont bother going to court its just 2 hard.

and if u know that u were speeding then stop spamming up SAU and pay the fine

Re two direction use of the cameras..

I stopped and questioned an operator late last year after we were flashed.. He said the cameras were capable of reading the speed of traffic (and capable of photographing both directions) if they were set up properly on the right angle on particular roads that allowed it.

He was a pro and mentioned he could always set his camera up this way, so it's worth being aware that you can still get done whilst traveling in the opposite direction by nice guys that believe in infringement equality.

also, don't speed, pay up.

When I were a lad ( :)) I got pinged on Canning Hwy coming down the hill past Melville motors. I was riding my brakes and within the limits. At the time of the flash a truck passed me on the outside so I naturally assumed it was him. When I recieved the fine I went into east perth to question it and view the photo. Interestingly there was no truck in the photo, Infact there wasn't a car on the road anywhere!!!!! at peak hour???? I suspect the truck driver got a fine too.

    • 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
    • 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.
