I have no idea how long these have been in use so please forgive me if it's old news....
was out cruising a while back with a few guys on the clipsal friday. the police presence, including defect stops was getting a bit daunting, so we did one last run through the city then headed home. on the last trip down Hindley street (i'm in adelaide) we spotted parked up near macca's an unmarked Hiace van, no side windows, a cop sitting in the passenger seat and a small camera sitting on the roof above the rear door. we had no idea what it was. went out cruising again tonight (hey, its what i do lol), turn into hindley off west terrace, and theres the van. theres a cop standing next to the drivers door, so i pull up and ask politely what the camera is for. He told me the name (A.S.?.?), and that they use it for checking rego's as you drive past. it runs it thru the computer, and if something comes up he calls his buddy parked up the street a bit, and they bust your ***... sorry if that was a boring read lol.... |
