Its the stealth collection of money via cameras that Im against because there is no real deterrent or modification of driver behaviour getting a fine in the mail a week or so later. Other than maybe you have now run out of demerit points!
While I don't like the low tolerance in Victoria, I have driven in Victoria a number of times and gone past camera cars in rural areas, and yes I was speeding but slowed for the camera. You see I notice things like cars parked on the side of the road, and a few seconds of slower driving won't kill me. Won't work in metro though, but then again most of my above limit driving is rural.
