How exactly do mobile speed cameras work ??
I have don't a lot of research and have spoken to a number of my friends, but I always get different answers. I just want a straight answer
Well anyway I was going around 80km in a 70 zone on silverwater road, NSW
I was travelling towards bankstown, and on the other side of the road facing opposite of me was the ford territory, I quickly slowed down to under 70, as I passed the front of it.
Do mobile speed cameras work like regular cameras and get you as you pass them ? Or can they catch people from both directions, and even if you're on the opposite side of the road (I was facing the back of the ford territory) and drove past it at 70
Any advice will be great, thanks heaps!!

Not sure how it is in NSW, but in QLD we have vans that can catch you from both directions. However, they mostly only use the vans that can catch you from one direction in surburban areas.
-
The Ford territory does both directions. They have 2x IR cameras mounted on each direction.
It likely snapped you before you even slowed down.
-
How about motorcyclists ? If mobile speed cameras catch you from front on, they don't have number plates on the front ?
-
Yep for motorcyclist its a free pass if you manage to pull up quick enough, RTA has been trying for years to get front mounted number plates !
-
Those ford territory in NSW can catch you on a flat road, 2km in either direction, so you would have been caught even before you noticed it IMO
and motorcycles with front number plates will never happen, its kind of ironic how the RTA etc wants to impose road safety but wants to implement a front number plate on a motorbike.

What is the safety issue of having front number plates??

I've seen them from a distance here in Sydney, slowed down as soon as I saw it and never received any fines.

Sometimes sit hidden after a bend though, sneaky ball lickers.

in case of an accident the front number plate may go into the driver
