Default Re: QLD Easter : 1 Km over Speed Limit Ticket!!!!!!

This blitz by QPol doesn't seem to have achieved much. One of their own killed up north, and 2 killed in a head on. Doubt in either case tat 1km/h would have made a difference either way. They should look at hose who are in the 2 or more demerit point categories, and leave the 1 pointers alone; it is unlikely that in good conditions, if cars are all travelling at a decent speed, even if that seed is slightly over the posted limit, that the additional speed would result in a crash. The wipe off 5 that Victoria targeted is a croc, because it is highly likely that doing 5 over is the difference between being ahead of an accident, or being in it.

They should target excessive speedsters, drink drivers, people doing more than 10% under the posted limit (in favourable conditions), those on phones, and anyone driving a Hyundai getz (worst drivers on the road!)
