oh another little rule we have in victoria is if u get pinged for something on a long weekend you get DOUBLE demerit points for it! not sure when this one came in, but it definitely happened last long weekend.

We've got that in NSW too.

I don't know if I'm incredibly lucky or about to become a fine defaulter.
About 3 weeks ago I was doing a bit over 70 on River Rd in Longueville (North Shore in Sydney), next to the golf course (60km/h limit) and didn't notice the policeman with the radar gun next to the road until it was too late to slow down. But I saw him hold the gun as I went past, he had to have got me.
Since then I've been waiting with dread for the fine to arrive in the mail. But it hasn't come - I hope it hasn't got lost in the mail, or I could face some nasty penalty for defaulting on a fine when I never got the notice. Or maybe I'm just lucky and for some reason I'm not going to get fined...

I got one a few months ago for being over the limit going downhill, which p*ssed me off to great lengths.

Other than that in the five years I've had pretty good luck with speed cameras.
