Government Obtains Income Illegally

It is a common site in Australia to see a car parked on the side of the road, with apparatus on front of it. At this point one can realise that the car in question is a speed camera car.

Parking on the nature strip, like the vehicle in illustration, is against the law.

Quite simply put, the law cannot be broken in order to prosecute an offender / offending vehicle.

Any speeding tickets obtained in this manner are null and void, when challenged.

The authorities are fully aware of this fact, and prey on the ignorance of the public, and continue to issue falsely obtained tickets.
