And to prove it... [img:7acb17f0d1]http://www.ecocomm.anu.edu.au/people/info/eagar/aussies%20rule.jpg[/img:7acb17f0d1]
Hmm. So, Aussies are really that brick stupid, are they? If this were to happen, well, a few things would occur. First of all, the picture would, on being reviewed, be revealed to be a police plate. Then it would be checked to see if the officers were involved their duty, in which case no ticket would be sent (they thought of this when they designed the system, kiddies). Once it was shown that it was on the wrong car, they would take the pictures of the youths, of whom they would now have [i:74ae8351e8]seventeen[/i:74ae8351e8] photos, and they would go about finding them. Once they did, the young perpetrators would be arrested and charged with the theft of the license plate and seventeen counts of speeding. So, [i:74ae8351e8]are[/i:74ae8351e8] Australians this stupid, Spiky?
Yes they are that smart because ACT speed cameras are angled such that they can't see in the car but only the number plate so they can never actually prove who was driving the car... and the guys who spoke to the cops to distract them didn't provide any ID so the cops would have to provide a positive visual ID in a line up situation and they are never reliable (and that have to find them first)... Besides Canberra is entirely populated by lefty liberal hippies who get the joke. Just because [i:c58565a0f1]you[/i:c58565a0f1] can't.
thats great. i showed it to the people at my mums work (phoneline at home down which means no internet) thay all laughd. that is so injinous (spelling).
That's pretty funny. I can see why it wouldn't work in America where they'd take it much more seriously, and you wouldn't really want to fool around with people who might shoot you as soon as look at you. In the much more layed back Oz however, with the traffic police [i:e39171e5a7]and[/i:e39171e5a7] being in Canberra it was a pretty cool stunt. Obviously it couldn't happen again though.

Now that is ironic!
LOL. Ironic indeed. (It just took me four attempts to spell ironic. . . maybe this board is jinked!) And that is SUCH a funky trick!! Nice one.
