I wanted to add a comment to a thread but it is closed.
I absolutely have to say this. In Dubbo I see p platers (Yes! The drivers were young) driving XR8s. Commo 8s. Turbo XR6s. Asked the RTA about the law and was told it is an individual case thing. WTF? At the east end of the big bridge there is a set of lights. I will see about six to eight older drivers going through the red light each and every morning. (Not all at once than God). There were some police there one morning and I asked them what can be done and was told Nothing. The police have to see it for themselves. I have been almost cleaned up about three times by the older people (20', to 40's) going through red lights in Dubbo. When I drove in the 60's all the speeders I saw were in the bush roads or tracks. I think we had a better understanding of caring for other road users. Sorry if this rant gets up peoples noses. Haddasayit! |

Or take a decent camera with you and record it with plates visible. If you see 6-8 each morning, it shouldn't be too hard to snap them doing it, haha. Otherwise, I guess there is no way for you to do anything about it.

Maybe a red light camera there would do wonders. How about suggesting to the local council/police to put a red light camera there.
I mean, it's not every day a citizen asks for more cameras on the road. I am sure if others are in the same boat as you (about the safety of the intersection) you'll be met with support. |

This thread is going to stay open....
These threads get old people and young people all upset hence why the previous thread was closed. Use your energy to help catch these people instead of wasting it here. |

If a thread is closed it is for a reason, do not start another just to get a word in.
This one is closed too.
