Always been tempted to have a spare "SPEED CAMERA AHEAD" sign in the boot of my car for just such an event. Make them wonder why they had no hits all day if I did!

If your observant and know the section of road you would be able to list the dangers.I can think of 5 straight away which also dictated why its speed limit is not 100kph.

Guess what, an attitude like yours is the reason the thing has been placed there.
That plus the 4 crashes requiring the emergency services in a few years where travelling faster than 80kph was a factor.
So your welcome to come and collect that Tui from me anytime you like!Speights Bar right opposite the camera van ;)

Z nails are too big.could be dangerous for the mower guys. Try some gang nails chopped up into small squares.
Of course I don't condone this behaviour,,I'm just thinking of keeping real workers safe.

theres two or three spots the revenue collectors park near Ngahinaouri (sh 39). one is completely hidden behind a roadside bush (with limited life!) totally obsructed from view to northbound on a staedy decline.a real easy place to to inadvertantly pick uo enough speed to be pinged, another is on a lh bendSth with roadside trees semi obscuring the exit. In the village (70)limit)a speed camera sometime s parks without parklights on which seems to be a non standard mode of operation. THereare a lot of double judder no passing line on this section of busy road, & IMO the drivers who cross these line are the dangerous speeders who should be targetin a more high profile campaign - speed + failure to keep to the left- a sure fire equation for serious headons, (the old big vanswith the white vents on the roofs are back too!

I noticed a couple posters thinking this is a moan thread.well maybe I did use the wrong icon.
Unless your actually passing through the township the chances of you gettingzapped by this camera are actually pretty low.But it is those that are zapping through the township ignoring the 80kph limit that have and are causing the problems that put this camera in place.
That is where you speeding problems are the blatant ignoring of a reduced speed limit because it interferes with you 100kph Journey for a short inteval, same thing happens with uncontrolled roadworks.
One the reason I think this is a token gesture is that the faster moving traffic does not mix witht he slower moving traffic going into the main part of the township, junction and service station.Thats why there have been so many accidents! Getting vehicles to slow down will reduce the risk!And thats why the camera vans appear.A better road layout would help!
