Those speed cameras are suckers for a cute blonde apparently!! You must be one!!

Is that right?

Yep-'fraid so

Get caught speeding without a seat belt over Easter and you will lose 6 points. That's half a licence.

If you get caught speeding and not wearing your belt over the holidays you cop double points double fine i.e
Speeding less than 13 k over limit 1 point, failing to wear seat belt 3 points.
Over the holiday that would be double so 8 points. If you were in excess of 13k over you'd do your full 12 point allocation as it's a 3 point offense doubled.
Driving on "Black Friday" scares the bejeesus out of me

Just doing that maths on all that scared the bejeesus out of me!

I assume you're attempting to be funny Here's a thought, try not to speed anywhere but definitely do not speed a) when carrying your children and b) whilst there are many children around. Presumably you remember to slow down to 40 when on the school run and you've managed to get near the school three minutes earlier than you would have

To anyone who speeds, feel free to add up the points and the fines but please don't complain about being caught. It's obviously a risk you're happy to run so deal with it.

Please Miss,
I'm a reformed speedster I've learned my lesson after my nine points in nine days excursion a number of years ago
I've been really good, really careful or really observant I can't decide which
I do know I developed the ability to spot a yellow safety jacket at 500m fairly quickly.
I have to get my new licence soon, I object to forking out every five years for one but I'm going to brush my hair & get a wash for this one, I may even shave

In WA the roads authority "Main Roads WA" regularily reviews speed limits in roads. Every anouncement of a change in speed limit I have seen has been a reduction.
This leads me to ask why.
I know the answer will come back that speeding causes accidents and costs lives. However, cars are now technically way in advance of, and safer than, cars were when the speed limits were initially placed. This indicates to me that the continual speed limit reductions are not the only answer to the accident statistics. The style of driving here is one of the major problems (tailgating, crossing 3 lanes of traffic on the freeway in one move, road design etc etc). This needs to be addressed too, and it may have been but I can't see it. All I see is the continual "Don't speed" and "Don't drive when drunk" messages.
In the UK people drove faster, but I saw less accidents than here in WA, and drivers were more courteous.

Despite them yammering on about wanting to stop people speeding the authorities seem strangely reluctant to tell people the speed of the road they are on. One quick flash of a sign then no more clues is the usual.

If they wanted people to know don't know why they don't put more speed limits on the road itself every K or so to ensure people know the speed for that stretch.

Suppose that would then stop them having those stretches of road where speed limit goes up and down like a yo yo.

It's only a quick flash of a sign when your going @ mach 7 Ms Gonzales

Exactly 'a sign' not multiple signs at spaced differences to remind people.

In UK they found those flashing signs that reminded you of your speed and didn't fine you had a more drastic effect on peoples speed than cop cameras.

On the continent they have a set of traffic lights on entering a town your speed is monitored if you are going too fast the traffic lights change to red! slows everyone down

Which continent is that then?

One of those signs was in Ellenbrook this morning on one of the school runs. It had a great effect.
