The gloves are off
They can't afford an extra bed in a major public hospital, so a poor lady is left holding her live fetus in the hospital toilet newspaper hospital article and they are going to pay $58.000 each for a flashing light unit for school zones, but won't use proven technology that does the same job and costs $350 each.
The school holidays are here, so Mr Roozendaal has two pupil free weeks weeks to get someone to put repeater flashing lights at Edgbaston st, because too many drivers are still speeding and putting children at risk and drivers need to be reminded it's aschool zone and school zone time, while they sit at the traffic lights at Morgan st.
You have to SLOW DOWN cars on the day, not just send a fine(s) three weeks later.

This is what I made up for today as it is a double demerit day.
One young P plate driver obviously didn't notice my small sign on my van and when he drove past me holding the 40 board he actually sped up.
Public transport for him.

One young lady approached me with two toddlers, she had been fined 6 times before she knew.
A young man told me his sister in law had been fined 6 times.
A tradesman walking past said he had been caught twice
A lady this morning was walking past to look for the camera, she has had one ticket come in as yet
An old gent said out of 10 houses in his small street nearby someone in 8 of them had been fined.
When all of a sudden thousands of people get caught by the cameras, wouldn't someone think hey what's going on?
Are there unforseen contributing factors that causes so many drivers to still "speed"?
What our Premier and the Road minister say about this situation is one page back in "Is it worth it?"
