well, suppose they have to try top up the government coffers somehow with all of the covid stimulus since March... rolleyes

not sure how successful they will be in doing motorists for 1-2kmh over the limit if enough drivers fight it all the way to court and therefore overload the system

Didn't the police start doing this a couple of years ago anyway? I'm sure I remember seeing something about them extending the zero tolerance period beyond the Christmas holiday.

May just have been an idle threat though, to get some compliance without actually doing much.

Classic govt bureacratic thinking...

"Strict low-tolerance enforcement of arbitrary limits doesn't seem to be improving the road toll, so the obvious solution is to try even more of the same thing"
