Two dead, hoons clocked in Easter road blitz Picture: Theo Fakos Source: PerthNow TWO people have died and several drivers have been clocked doing more than 165km/h this Easter long weekend. Operation Crossroads will be conducted until midnight tonight, but so far almost 4800 drivers have been issued fines from speed cameras alone, according to Acting Assistant Commissioner Fred Gere. "Reports of vehicle crashes continue to occur and we again remind drivers that speed, failure to wear seatbelts, drink driving, being distracted and driving fatigued still remain the most prominent causal factors for crashes," he said. The road toll climbed to two this morning after a 21-year-old male pedestrian was hit by a truck on the Mitchell Freeway. His death follows that of an elderly man on Thursday, who died after he was involved in a caravan rollover in the Great Southern.

A speed camera in the Mid West Gascoyne detected 12,778 vehicles. 754 will be fined, indicating 5.9 per cent or one in 17 of those motorists was speeding.
