Re: Harbour toll - number plate recognition

There are indeed some lanes that have no boom gates at the city-end
of the Bridge. The E lanes on far right side.

Have moved to city now anyway, given that Sydney traffic was pissing
me off so much (what's so hard about tolling the Epping exit? M2
ripoff...

So now I just have to look at the Bridge instead of crossing the
darn thing.

Local pub has fine views of the Bridge too.. (Hotel Palisade,
Millers Point)...appears to attract
mods/scooters on Tuesday evenings...might do some Triple-ride bys to
buzz them away next week :-)
