Staggering fines generated by new speed camera in the M8 Tunnel
Manage episode 424700005 series 2343685
I use the new Westconnex M8 tunnel on a regular basis, with a new 90km/hour
limit a great piece of road infrastructure, expensive yes but a real time saver.
Surprising news this week – a new speed camera installed in May in the M8
tunnel at Newtown heading southbound has generated more than $1.3 million
dollars in fines in its first month of operation from 1622 infringements. It appears
most of the drivers caught speeding were using business-registered vehicles –
camera detected fines issued to companies can be five times the amount paid by
an individual, the company required to nominate the driver responsible within a
specified time – if they nominate the driver the fine reduces to the applicable
individual amount. With the tunnel speed indicated at 200 metre intervals its
staggering that so many drivers throw caution to the wind. I’m David Berthon
