Funny thing is that I drive in Victoria pretty much at ~20-25 over most of the time (most of the time its safe in my opinion) in 100 and 110 zones, everywhere else 10 over, unless its busy, theres people around etc. Never been caught by a speed camera in hundreds of thousands of km over 14 years. (Average 80k a year) Have been caught by perhaps 15 or so real cops. Always for around 20- 30 over in 100 - 110 zones.
In Vic if you get caught by a speed camera you arent paying attention to the road and deserve it basically. Perhaps doing 120 passed a parked car is dangerous?! Its not a bad test for drivers who arent watching the road. Too bad if you get caught by one I say.
Where I am scared to speed is WA, those tripod cameras are terrible!! You cant see them until you are ontop of them. Dont tell the Vic govt about them WA!! And these even in a safe area can catch you. WA is the worst I think.
