These are rumors however, and up here in Qld.

But rumors are usually true.
Did it, got the above, "Dazzling other road users" is the fine, was $50 now 75.. not allowed to use your highbeams within 50m of another road user....

Hasnt stopped me, just more cautious after speed cameras/ undercovers

Out of all the car forums I have been on over the years, this one seams to have the largest amounts of 'Sudszy's'.

How do people know that the cops are doing speed enforcement when they flash other drivers. Yep, 99% of the time a HWP car is there to get a speeding driver. But they are police, what if it's that 1% of the time they're doing actual police work. What if they are there because they have info a serious criminal is in the area? What if they were there because a child had been abducted and they are looking for a suspect car? By flashing you have warned the crim how to avoid the police ahead.

Yep, flash the crap out of non-police speed cameras, but I won't flash cops for the reasons above. And still can't get my head around people who flash RBT sites, what we want drink drivers and speeders on the road?

Warning oncoming drivers to the camera, for the 10 seconds you're in the area???

Who cares, seriously. Speed & get fined, don't speed & no problem. It's up to you.
