New camera on Barry Hertzog.

[Sobersoldier]

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to let you know that there's a new permanent camera that's been installed on Harry Hertzog. If you are travelling south down Barry Hertzog towards Empire Rd, you will pass the hectic S-bends and there's a bridge just as you come out of the bends. The new camera is installed against the side of the bridge. Click on the link below to see the 2 pics i snapped this morning...

I'm not posting this so that people that speed won't get caught but rather that the people who travel on this road know that there's a camera and don't hit into the back of some idiots car when he slams on the brakes cos he's speeding.

Thanks,
SS

On Google Earth you can place a camera icon and share it with the world

Good pictures.

What speed measurement is used here?

I notice that this set-up takes a picture of the cars rear - must remember that when purchasing a jammer - get the front an rear transducers.

My pictures of the PE cops trapping with laser on a steep downhill have just appeared on this site http://www.speedtraps.co.za/gallery-page.php

Lol..
If a "speeder" slows for the camera and they hit into his rear then logically they must have been speeding as well.

Unless of course if he really slows down way way below the limit..

This really p!sses me off. The camera is positioned to catch you on a wide road that opens up to 3 lanes. There is absolutely no danger for cars to travel at 80km/h, but it is an easy money making scam for metro because the speed limit is set at 60km/h. If they really wanted to control speed for safety reasons, they would position the camera on the north/west bound lane heading into the s-bend. It's got nothing to do with safety and everything to do with revenue generation. F*ckers.
