Default hume hwy speed camera (vic) near

anyone know if the camera near the whittlsea/wallan over pass has been commissioned/re-commisioned??

Yes i believe i was speeding when overtaking a truck as i went through, about 5 or 10 over... dammit... stupid thing was kicking stones all over the car! anyway enough excuses...

There was no flash going off.. but still im a bit wary... i thought i saw the little red eye in the camera, like wat u see when city link checks ur e-tag... anyways... anyone know if it's working or not?

I don't think so GenesiS.
It was originally put there when they were doing road works some time ago!
I went past it about **klms over about a year ago, and nothing eventuated from that.
However that being said, I always do the speed limit past it anyway.
License means too much these days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Regards

AGRO.

thanx agro... yeah i cherish my license, as much as i hate vicroads... no license means i cant enjoy my car!!!

I am usually very careful and pretty good with my speed... but when something is throwing stones all over the car its always best to just get out of there...

my parents who have travelled it have been in the same boat and they reckon it doesn't work either... i feel like a dick about it... i mean i wasnt being silly or doing a rediculous speed... its nothing i could loose my license over... i just cant afford the a fine atm...

i guess at the end of the day onlytime will tell... guess i have to cross my fingers and save some pennies as a precaution.
