NSW is so damn lucky to get marked cars.

Edit: So by the look of these cars, it looks like they snap you as you approach not AFTER you pass? If that's the case that sucks! In Victoria it's okay because you can at least slow down or check your speed before you pass it.

Hi Unique.
RTA boasts these camera cars can monitor 6 lanes of traffic either direction.
The operators just have a touchscreen in the cabin and select any lane they like. I imagine they will be monitoring all lanes all the time to maximise revenue.
Can snap six cars a second with this system. In the photos posted in the link above, it would seem the camera has been set up to snap traffic going down the hill away from the camera. Nice one RTA !
