I can not in any way verify the accuracy of this information.
I am a little dubious about the "elapsed time" Geelong road cameras as I thought these were shelved for the time being. Of course, the government will not intervene to suppress rumours that they are there and work.
Quote:Combination Speed and Red light cameras
Cnr Orrong and Dandenong Rd Caulfield, very active and Alexandra Pde and Smith St Fitzroy, just before the Eastern Freeway not to forget Stud Rd and
Wellington Rd cnr. Rowville.
The red light camera on Swan St Bridge and Alexanrda Ave opps Myer Music Bowl has been repaired as I have noticed recently.
New permanent Speed cameras
On the Monash Freeway, 600m before entering the tunnel heading towards the city. It's hidden behind an overhead road sign.(80kph).
Even though this one is openly publicised by the media and the state government, it continues to catch over 700 drivers per day!
Westgate Freeway - Princes Highway
On the top of the Westgate Bridge.
Hoppers Crossing overpass
At the first Werribee exit.
At the Little River exit.
Point Cook overpass.
At Point Wilson overpass.
At Corio
Just before you arrive at the Waterslide in Geelong. (Norlane)
Note: These are elapsed time trigger cameras, they estimate your average driving speed between checkpoints. Slowing down before each overpass will not fool them.
All these cameras are positioned in both the inbound and outbound lanes and tricky to see.
If you did 10kph over the speed limit all the way from Melbourne to Geelong, you can expect up to $125 fine on each one and the loss of 1 demerit point. Each camera is able to book cars doing even 5k's over the limit.
