Default Speed camera on the Monash Fwy

Heya fellow Melbournians, do you know exactly where the new speed cameras are on the Monash fwy? I was driving there yesterday and forgot all about it... and last nite on the news they were talking about it again, saying how the government is defending it and that it's not just a revenue raising exercise. Bunch of bollocks!!!

Anyway, I think this may be my first ticket in the ITR.

Inbound, on sign gantry just as you go up the Punt Rd overpass, cameras (3) facing toward City. It is a 80km/h area.

Sounds like the motorcycle is going to get a lot more use from now on.

Reasons?

1. Front plate not required.
2. For some inexplicable reason the rego sticker (in plastic case) which is attached to the bottom of the rear plate regularly has a tendency to swing up and obscure at least two characters of the plate.

Bugger... I was playing with this SL500 yesterday in that area... citybound... oh well... now we play the waiting game. I knew it had to happen eventually. I hope I wasn't doing much over...
