Land mines or open-cut gold mines?

Land mines... Hahaha. I'm having the funniest visual right now of a multinova surrounded by an open-cut mine hahahaha.

fortress...what like a sandbag one the army makes for their machine guns, like you see in the war movies

. They prefer to use the Lasers in the mines, rather than the speed camera...probably because so many people get out of their cars, and do things outside, they can mask the laser.

Edit: corrected spelling.

Dont forget us tax payers will have to fork out for all this stuff

We fork out for other over-indulgence items too

Word is, the guy has been caught didn't break the camera enough

some manual photo's were taken of him. The driver that stopped was also able to give a full license plate.

I stand corrected, too. Apparently if a car does hit the camera etc. That's a $10 000 write off, (photographic evidence stays intact though.) And with that they get a new camera set which is digital, which is now the prefered one, so if you hit one, the operater won't be too panicked because he'll get a digital replacement.

Thats not really the point though. If a car came off the road aimed at me id crap my pants. harsher punishment is needed

Oh don't get me wrong Jared, I'd never argue with that, harsher longer punishments are needed overall in WA.
