4WDs where they shouldn't be, again

Vehicles on the Ashley near nesting shorebirds. Obviously an ongoing problem.

With remote cameras now able to reliably identify pests to species and send alerts to managers immediately, it shouldn't be hard to train them to identify vehicles and even read licence plates and send to managers even from remote locations.
