Beginning next month the Queensland Police will begin trialling a new piece of speed enforcement technology which combines the portability of the laser and mobile speed camera in to one easy to use mobile unit.

The LaserTech TruCAM is a speed laser gun with an integrated digital video camera which would make it the most sophisticated speed enforcement tool in use in Australia. It has the ability to provide video evidence combined with a high resolution image that can easily identify a vehicles make and model, number plate and facial characterises of the driver.

 

 

From a couple of separate sources we are hearing that the speed cameras positioned on the Logan Motorway Bridge on the M1 have now been signed as speed cameras.

This means that the cameras could now be in operation. Although no official word has come through to tell us otherwise, we urge those who do the trip northbound past the overpass to take heed and slow down.

I received an email today from a contact within Energex who informed me of a request filed by Main Roads for power at 6 new speed camera locations.

The camera's will for a short period be operating in test mode, followed by live operations.
