Cops don't even need to show you a reading on their handheld to issue a fine, and they can issue fines withouth a photo, with their partner present who acts as a witness.

Even without their partner (off duty), cops can still issue arrests and shit.

Thanks Nic,

let do some case study

Suppose there are a vehicle A at the speed of 180kmh in a 70km zone which detected by a 'laser gun' and the driver did not slow down. What can an officer do?

1. Chase him down (I really doubt this)

2. The driver will receive a mail within few weeks (how can they record the number plate in the dark?)

3. Do nothing

(No i am not planning to do somthing, I only race on the track, seriously)

They'd probably just walk in the direction you're going to pull you out of the tree.

Yes...do a case study....go and do that, and when you find out what happens in that situation, get back to us all.

These soo called "laser" guns arent exactly limited...they can zoom, and pick up vehicles from 400+ metres away.

At 180, I'd assume they're operating in a 100 zone, plenty of time to block the vehicle, or prepare to chase after it.

At 180, if the car didnt stop, I highly doubt any cop with his ninja reflexes and vision will be able to make out the number plates, vehicle make, model and any other details...assuming the car isnt stolen and/or fitted with fake/stolen number plates (who the f**k would do those kind of speeds with their own registered number plates, I don't know)

Even if they missed the car they'd be calling it in rather than "do nothing", any police in that area would be onto it pretty quickly, you never know, they might even get the chopper onto your ass....

I found an answer:

"police have already taken delivery of 14 new digital hand-held cameras that can take video and still-photo evidence."

Mill Point Road - heading towards Fremantle (Coming from Riverside drive, as you decide whether to go on freeway south/north)

Guaranteed hand helds: they wait till after the apex of the corner and zap people coming by. I have seen them there numerous times.

South Street heading towards freeway (from canning vale). After Roe Highway over pass through the lights and around the corner. They are normally waiting near bustop just before the next lights.

Those are they only 2 I have seen at least 3 times year .

Anyone tried picking up fix speeding cameras with their GPS yet? They work over in Melbourne so why not here?

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
