There was a news story in the Sydney Morning Herald a week or so ago about a bloke who'd managed to pick up two speeding fines a minute apart from the camaras in the Harbour Tunnel. Now, apart from this being blatant moneygrabbing (each offence was less than 10kmh over the 80) there are no signs of where the camaras are in the Tunnel.
Does anyone know if there are any 'rules' for where camaras should be? I know the UK has a set of exceptionally flexible 'rules' regarding accident rates and so on, but at least you can spot the buggers - these are hidden.

Road Angels - no problems with using them in Australia? If not, I'm off to get one - I've just upgraded my licence to HR for work, can't afford to lose it now.
I suppose there's a modicum of honesty here - at least no-one pretends cameras are there for improving safety - no-one seems to shy away from the money they bring in. Esp in Vic.
Seems a shame though, as there are so many easy fixes to some of the risks of driving here, that they've opted to rake in the revenue and do chuff all else. 'Tis life, I'm sure.
