if they were really all about traffic calming and not revenue raising then why raise the fines ?
why not just points... |

meter off the scale>. If they only raise the points, then everyone will hurt the same, but because the govt is sleeping with the rich end of town they felt it was only fair to penalise the poor people more. So if you speed and are rich you lose some points and don't notice the cash. If you speed and are poor, you lose the points and your kids starve for a week. Yet another way the govt is keeping things fair and watching out for the well being of the community... NOT.

For 40kms' over the limit they raised the demerit points by 1 but raised the cash by $650!!!! That's a 300% rise in cash, but they are not revenue raising..

Best way to avoid not adding to the revenue, DONT SPEED. Just a thought.

It really is so simple, but most people don't get it. Dont speed=no files. If everyone did it then speed camera's wouldn't pay for themselves and would be shelved.
