yeah ive seen electronic ones that flash when its a 40 zone... so if its flashing, then its obvious you should be doing 40, if its not, 50 it is!!

Contend it!

Bloody rediculous having a time zone for school zone limits. Should be one speed no matter what time of the day it is. having school age kids myself I would like to see them 20kmh all day everyday. School zones arent that big really so a little inconvenience for a few people is a small price to pay to know there is a little less chance a kid is going to get skittled.... If people speed in school zones they deserve what ever they get

How does 20km in a school zone at 10pm help kids? :P
I remember when i was at school, the place had cleared out by 3:01pm, and we got out at 3 Last place kids want to be after school is near school

20kmh at 3am on sunday morning ? thats a bit fucking stupid dont you think ?
besides, 80% of people caught in school zones are parents of children in that school.

As long as there is a time restriction on a speed zone there are going to be people argueing about what time they were caught, maybe 20 is a bit extreme but to have school zones at 40 for part of the day then 50 for another hardly seems worth it.

I've always wondered what would happen if you were pinged 2 mins overtime...because watches DO vary slightly!!

I'm with you though Dan...if I was a copper, I'd give them 5-10 mins on my watch (unless the guy was blatantly doing double the speed limit or something ridiculous, then I'd ream him )

Well, personally i see alot of what people call "soccer mums" speeding through school zones.Which is pathetic seeing as they have kids of their own!
