School Zone Santa .Com

Well it's be an up and down week for me, but very good for the hundreds of drivers I slowed down ,to help keep the children safe, and coincedentily before they were caught by the speed camera.

I have found it amazing though that only 2 people have taken the trouble to thank me for saving them at least $143 + points. One a young man who walked up to me a gave me 6 stubbies because he said I had saved him from a fine I and the second thanked me by email.
I assume that all the rest, think that I’m just doing my job.that someone is paying me.
I think my sign is a bit too professional and it could be an advertising gimmick.
could be they think I've recieved a road safety grant
Perhaps I could get one from ATSIC, they seem to have plenty of money.
I should ask sugar ray for a loan.

Please don't get me wrong I'm not there for the money ,but why would anyone stand there, (unless he was paid )in the hot sun, in a santa suit, waving a sign in front of complete strangers , coincedentily saving them money,and perhaps even their license.
Only a fool like me it appears, with the help of my poor long suffering family.

I'm not doing this for reward , but I would like to somehow break even.

I’m doing it to try and get "flashing lights" at all variable speed zones.

Better men than I and a lady have advised and lobbyed to no avail.See "SEE CRANKY DRIVERS MAKE CRANKY VOTERS" Futher down the site.

I,m doing this for the people who drive the long way, so they don't have to pass this school zone "in case they forget"

I'm doing for the elderly people who don't drive during school zone time "in case they forget"

I'm doing it on behalf of all the people who have emailed me.

All the facts and figures are in the pages below and I have so much
More information to add

News clippings about speed cameras.
I've collected information and observations about RTA waste.

As Alan Jones (2G once said about government "It’s easy to spend other people’s money."

I don't have the IT. skills to add more to the website, all this cut and paste and drag nonsense.
I get a lot of "you have preformed an illegal operation" and "there has been an end line error, do you wish to debug now" and all Mortein does is make the key board sticky.
I can't justify spending more money to pay to have it done so If there's any "nerd' out there who can help me (maybe someone who has been caught-out at a school zone) I would be grateful.

If I could get $5 for every driver I stopped coincdentily, from getting fined I wouldn't have to work after hours, and weekends to try to keep some money coming in.
$10 and I could buy a place in New Zealand's South Island and go bush walking with Mr Carr when he retires.

I don’t envy Mr Carr, to run a state as big as NSW must be difficult

But he shouldn't slap people, (a lot who would have voted for him) in the face with these stupid ,demeaning fines.

Speaking of leaders, Mr Brogden had better look over his shoulder , because if he makes any more blunders like he did over the police operation "AUXIN" his leadership could well be in danger, because with all the strife concerning
Hospitals, trains, teachers, water etc,a rainbow lorrikeet with a club foot could lead the liberal party and win the next election (no offence meant to any handicapped lorrikeets).

The last week has been rewarding having saved so many drivers from fines, coincidently of course, as I’m just helping the RTA slow the cars to make the area safer for the children. (flashing lights would do the same as me) and I love the friendly waves from all the passing drivers and the children who are always happy to see Santa,and being the middle child in a famiy of nine, it's feels good to be noticed.

And by the way every police person that I’ve seen, have returned my wave. Car loads of police, not just the driver but all occupants of the car wave as they pass by.

What does that tell you?
The rank and file police do a great job under difficult circumstances, and don't want to be linked to decisions that inept politicians make. These police have to bear the anger out there because, good drivers gets caught-out at school zones at say, 8-10 am when there's not a kid within cooee, because they're still at home having weetbix.

I’m on your side guys.

I would like more feedback fellow motorists, even from you, Mr RTA.

The RTA has Logged on my website 5 times, so far, twice on 3/2/05, so they know I'm there.

I’m sure that the 49,500 drivers that were fined $6.5 million in 2003/2004.at this site alone. (RTA figures) would love to hear them explain how getting a $143 fine in the mail 4/5 weeks later, helps the school child that could’ve been killed by this "speeding” driver. When if there had been "flashing lights" at the school the driver would almost certainly have slowed down.
The ones that don't slow down (and some morons won't) at "flashing light" controlled schools Zones double the fines.

How many drivers have been driving for 30/40 years,and have never had a ticket until school zones

I wish I had a twin I’d love to slow the cars on the other side of the road (for the children’s sake of course).It pains me to see the flash over there,because that unaware driver just lost $143.00
