An Aussie driver has been filmed using their car to repeatedly ram into a mobile speed camera on a roadside in NSW.

A video of the wild scene was shared yesterday in a Facebook group for speed camera spotters who joked the driver could have improved his aim and hit the device "harder". It's not clear where in NSW the video was filmed.

The video has been shared more than 1400 times and attracted more than 600 reactions.

Commenters on the post joked "this is what every speed camera deserves".

"Love his work," one person commented on the video.

"Brilliant," another said.

"He didn't hit it no way near hard enough," another commented.

Mobile speed cameras are used throughout NSW and instantly record offences, according to Transport NSW. The cameras are managed by the Roads and Maritime Services and the NSW Police Force and are maintained by a third party.

The cameras are capable of taking a digital image of cars where an offence is detected, including the date, time and details of the offence.

The details of the recorded offence are then handed to the State Debt Recovery Office, which is responsible for handing out fines.

News.com.au contacted NSW Police regarding the video. They said they'd need time to look into the incident.
