Breathtaking bravado foils speed camera?..
QC received a very amusing although naughty e-mail from
A spy at the Department of Transport this week. Our mate
Informs us that four youths from Canberra recently pulled
off a trick on a mobile speed-camera van operating in the
area. Three of the group approached the van and distracted
the operator's attention by asking a series of questions about
how the equipment worked and how many cars the operator
would catch in a day. Meanwhile, the fourth musketeer
sneaked to the front of the van and unscrewed it's number
plate. "After bidding the van operator goodbye, the friends
returned home, fixed the number plate to the car and drove
through the camera's radar at high speed ? 17 times", our
transport spy writes. "As a result, the automated billing
system issued 17 speeding tickets to itself. Go Aussies!"
