There is an alternative to NO signs to advise drivers on what speed it is in "off duty" school zones. Very simple.
How about a sign like this when you are in a long school zone, (or any school zone)in Beverly Hills as you turn right into King Georges rd from Stoney Creek rd, because the lack of any sign there has been the cause of so may court cases.
I've to Sutherland Court and seen it, A driver tries to explain that he didn't know what the speed was, and the RTA man says to the Judge that any driver not knowing what the speed is a, should then drive at the "default speed". ????????

"Oh no another different sign, no way, it would confuse drivers." could be the argument for a NO from the RTA.
Would one extra sign really be that difficult?
Drivers are meant to know a few different rules now, have a look down the left hand column of the link below and I think a new sign like the example above isn't too confusing.
I think the average driver would work it out

Four months and 21 pages of how drivers have been treated by the RTA, lawyers, ministers, courts, or how they have been ignored after being fined at the Beverly Hills speed camera trap.

The premier Mr Iemma made this speech at the swearing in of the new police commissoner.(Daily Telegraph 4/10/07)
"POLICING IS ABOUT THE EXCERCISING THE POWER AND AUTHORITY IN A DEMOCRACY, IT'S ALSO ABOUT DETERMINING THE LIMITS OF THAT POWER,AND INSURING THERE IS JUSTICE."

IS THERE JUSTICE HAPPENING AT BEVERLY HILLS?
