Given that admission it seems there is little "following of the rules" by police forces. Hence my advice to contest. ie. There is nearly something you can catch them on.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for catching dangerous drivers as I'm sure you are, but this money grab where observed speeds are only a little over the limit is just crazy.
Have a look at the story on this site about the Sydney Lane Cove tunnel outrage. The Minister and the police knew they were acting illegally.

As we noted on another thread.....Governments and bureaucrats can't be trusted to act in a lawful manner.
