Easy money. Catching criminals in town is much harder, with little money.

Mr G:
The police make nothing out of either catching criminals in town, or people speeding. Think before you write GG, for all of our sakes.

If they put as much effort down the North Beach car park of an evening/night, they would catch enough speeders and generate enough income in fines to fill the ‘black hole’. I still can’t believe these antics are allowed to continue night after night this despite the fact that people have been killed by these morons speeding from the North Beach car park, where they congregate, to all points North and South. Still, the tourism season starts soon and with it the lighter evenings so more of these morons will be out and about contributing to the first imprseeion visitors get as they arrive off the ferries and/or berthing their own vessels in the QEII marina.
