• So is enforcement in Australia also done in the dense cores of older cities? That's obviously where it's most difficult.

    I've never read up on enforcement in Australia, so don't know much about it.

    As you know, there are speed cameras in the UK, too, e.g. on motorways etc., but they have come under fierce political attack in the past and form part of a very sorry saga.

  • OT but re speed cameras, was coming down the M1 through the new sections a couple of weeks back and through those new gantries and shit sections, signs were lit up ‘70’ and the flashes were popping off like mad. Traffic wasn’t heavy at all so no real need for ‘managing’ it (which was the purpose of all that infrastructure and investment) But motorways, however could be made to work in 20 zones I guess?

  • The M1 is dreadful. But I don't think those gantries have to be on for the cameras still to be working (same on the M25 bits that are like that)

  • I haven't been following M1 development so don't really know what you're talking about, I'm afraid. What's the problem with signs indicating the UK motorway speed limit? Has it been raised from 70mph there?
