Headsup from an early traveller, half of WA's highway patrol is in Bullsbrook today. Multiple speed traps, vehicle checks, breatho, the works.

There's roadworks there too, and they're enforcing the roadworks speedlimit.

Given the plod presence - maybe leave the crack pipe at home?

Safe travels all.

Anyone with a smartphone should check out this new app I just discovered yesterday.

Still getting the hang of it but so far looks like a jewel and was only a dollar or something on the Apple Apps store.

http://www.trapster.com/

Real-time alerts for speed traps, police checkpoints, accidents, etc.

R.


Yeah downloaded it yesterday as well...its actually free for iphone.

The more people using the better as its up to the users to log the alerts, locations etc...great idea!

Runs inside google maps
