Default New speed camera Tonkin HWY

Heads up, new speed camera left lane heading south Tonkin HWY before Roe left turn off.


Strange looking box on side of road with large window


I called main roads to have it picked up as a safety matter due to the close proximity of the restraining fence not complying with Australian standards for state roads

Well it looks as though this may have done the trick mate! Last night on my way home I saw a bunch of 'technicians' standing around it, and then this morning it wasn't there any more!
Any chance you can get rid of some more of em? haha

I have submitted a letter to local government asking for the copy of the crash testing results of the structure.

I hold great concern on road safety of these stuctures as they may cause a car / truck to deflect back on to the road causing death rather than the restraining fence catching the car

I keep calling them in to main roads as litter and a dangerous debre on the side of the road
AWDmoke, Startodo and Top-Deck like this.

Good job getting it removed

Ask them if they are mounted on frangible posts, if not they pose a significant risk in a crash situation and should not be located within the clearzone of the raod without adequate protection (ie guardrail). Guardrail is actually there to deflect errant vehicles back onto the road.

Ow moved to the polly tunnel entrance heading south left side of road

Again if you parked you car there or broke down it would be towed away
