The answer to this is very simple. It was a joke. It had to be a number, an ordinary, smallish number, and I chose that one.

more important than the answer was deep thought's comment before he gave it to them. you're really not going to like it. adams has said the number has no great meaning, it was just going to be a number and a relatively small number

Queensland had 3 mths of warning people about the cameras to detect seatbelts and mobile phones - Up until end of October you got a picture and a notice but no penalties for being caught by the cameras. It has been all over Facebook and multiple groups I am in report where they have seen new cameras added and when.

$1.7 million dollars in fines for the first 3 weeks of November.
