Hi Peter, no speed cameras on Tulla freeway yet. Cheers, Frank.

thats right. no speed cameras on tollways except the tunnel entrances and wellington rd overpass on eastlink.

i give all my money to transurban so i don't have enough left for fines. 4 trucks take a load through citylink and back costs me $288. adds up over a week.

the drivers are getting worse every year in melbourne. no indicators, speeding, going slow in the right lane , nose to tail accidents several times a day due to people looking up from phones to late.

I didn't think any Commos were standing.

Have you forgotten the world's strictest covid lockdowns already

Chairman dan and his comrades did that. now the state is going and broke and the government refuse to listen to anyone. The companies doing the big build are all Chinese owned now.

Airport parking stations (Wilson Parking) is a licence to print money, Many floors of parking, you get giddy going around the entry/exit ramps, and run up a couple of K's looking for a parking space. All at an exorbitant rate per minute.

The minutes release between Health and Dan's cabinet is finally showing the diver of the lock downs.

I always used offsite parking in Brisbane, Andrews! Drop my car off, their shuttle bus to Airport. Car were inside old warehouses. Be away for month overseas, arrive back call shuttle bus to be picked up. Come back to a clean washed car and drive away. Service was great at a good price. Never a problem. I used to always drive Rocky/Brisbane rather than fly, was all part of our trip experiences.

I think the idea was to save lives. I've lost relatives and Long covid is best not having. . WA was able to isolate. I'm not an anti vaxxer.  Nev

[red750]

And that relates to parking at Tullamarine?  How?

[facthunter]

I'm Responding to Turbs. Is that OK? Nev

[red750]

OK, but when referring to something 8 posts back, it helps to use the "Quote" facility to create relevance. Threads have a tendency to drift.

I am vaccinated too so that's not why I commented.  Andrews caused hundreds of deaths. He didn't save anyone.

Thousands of people have the same opinion. But as we know anyone that doesn't share your opinion is wrong.

I assume you meant driver.

Tonight they referred to communications;  however, very few of them in both State and Commonwealth realised that a Declaration of Emergency in any form - fire, health etc automatically triggers a Commander to be appointed to make decisions OVER the elected official, so it's just a beat up for the election.

Yes spelling / typo, key board operator error.  Yep, however interesting to hear factual decisions.  In Queensland back in the day My boss would share and I'd see directly the poor decisions and associated blame game involving the Chief Health office and Premier etc.  My Boss came up with a solution / check system questionnaire procedure about ship arrivals, got laughed at by his peers and the GM; however it worked, then Victoria waterside wanted the Queensland system so ports could receive / move ships.  Much later all credit given to and taken by others in south east corner.   Thats how the world goes round.
