Pound Road Hallam Blitz?

[gdogzgtr]

As others have said it and I agree it's a reaction to the media pressure resulting from the fatal accident. Show the public we are out in force. Total waste of time IMO. If they were serious they would run massive operations on fri/sat nights for a few weeks and take all the car's off the road that are doing these street races, also get a few drink/drug driver's off the road, but that's to common sense and too costly with the overtime and shift allowances.

they are pulling over aussie cars as it was a supposed reddish holden or ford generic to have fled the race after the crash.

i saw it aswell and they aren't bothering with Jap imports.

they're starting to realise its the little red p platers with chopped springs in a VT commonwhore that are starting all the troubles.

honestly cant remember the last time ive seen a jap import driving stupid.

other than hondas with their Vtecular and all.

"VICTORIA - THE NANNY STATE"

Was that on a toyota aurion by any chance? spoke to a guy who had one, apparently he got it made at carribean gardens.

Fair enough thats nothing new, but what has that got to do with pulling up every person they can, that is just going about their daily commute?

Thats the thing i like about the anpr system, no pulling over randoms, just people who come up on the system with some thing against them.

I thought the overtime/shift thing would have something to do with the reason why there are pretty much no cops and absolutely no TMU on the highway after 1:30-2am, they have to know from complaints from the public what goes on, been expecting a big surprise blitz to happen on the highway after 2am for a while, thought they may have done it in summer at its peak, maybe this will trigger it, no doubt aca or tt will be asked along to film to show the public how all modified car drivers are hoons and we all put other peoples lives at risk.....

this anpr system is that why they have the camera a few hundred mtres before,?

What would you have to have against you to get picked up ?

Arthur, that is the camera. Checks to see if car is registered, owner has current D/L, checks for Warrants, sherriff warrants and any Whereabouts on vehicle. Any special conditions on D/L.

Then members will also pull over car's for roadworthy checks, expired rego labels etc.

Turns out to be very very busy. When I did it we had about 20 members and still couldn't keep up.

Takes the "sport" out of it... ...like a stick of TNT on a fishing trip...

Not that I'd admit to doing that...

I like to call it "shooting fish in a barrell"
