BV> Did you say that you were now listening to Mix FM in the mornings ?
BV> I've got it on in the background today and I can't believe it but
BV> they are broadcasting the location of radar traps and speed cameras.
BG> Dunno about NSW, but up here it's illegal to do that (as one local
BG> station found to their dismay a couple of years ago).

I was quite stunned when I heard it. Sure is a good way to increase
the ratings though :)

BV> Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it an offence for a driver of
BV> a vehicle to warn another vehicle that there is a speed trap ahead?
BG> Yep, but it's not an offence to "test" your headlights occasionally.

Yeah, but I don't think I'd bother with that line. I'd just cop it.
FWIW, I will warn on-coming traffic if there is a radar trap in their
direction of traffic flow, but I won't warn them if it is a RBT.

BV> If this is the case (which I'm sure it is, courtesy of some
BV> new legislation recently), then how on earth can they broadcast
BV> this sort of information over the radio ?
BG> The short story is that they can't (or shouldn't).

That's what I thought.

BG> There is a pub on the Cunningham Hwy at Goodna, ..[chomp]..
BG> Took the coppers ages to suss that one out too.  |-)

I like that. I'll bet it did wonders for his patronage too :)

BV> BTW, it's been a long time since I've listened to Mike Carlton.
BV> Boy, is he one _sick_ puppy :)
BG> Was he still pissed?

Sounded sober to me.
