Re: Victorian Police working on their Public image

There's something odd about those pictures. In the first two pictures, the bin is green, in the second two pictures, it's grey. Have they hidden cameras in more than one rubbish bin?

One of the funnier things drivers do on US roads is slow down as soon as they pass a radar gun....
as if somehow that makes them less guilty...

In a small town in New Hampshire, I got friendly with the local police officer. He said that when he's operating a speed trap, he'll take two or three readings on a speeding car. If the driver is paying enough attention to the road to notice the speed trap and slows down, he'll usually let the car go (as long as his initial speed wasn't too fast). His goal is to get cars to slow down, not to increase revenue for the town.
