Technically this is not true at all because the speed equipment they use is laser not radar, but that aside, one would assume that to fine motorists for speeding you would have to have clearly marked speed limit signs, which the SCTEX does have except that too many signs that conflict with each other have been placed in random locations.
This picture shows where a speed limit 80kph sign is only meters from a 100kph sign. So what is the speed limit? Is it only 80kph between these signs or is this the place that they locate the laser... errr radar equipment?
We had a discussion a few weeks ago about poor application of signs in SBMA but it seems the BCDA and SCTEX operators don't understand basic principles of signage either, but that doesn't seem to stop them writing out the tickets, tickets that would all be voided in other countries once the authorities saw this marvel of signposting!
the lack of signage is either because of ignorance or is to confuse so more fines=more mony
