The cameraman inside was unharmed, but their car was left battered and had to be towed off the scene.
Police say the offending vehicle was a black or dark gray older Nissan Navara ute, and have urged panel knockers to look for matching cars requiring front-end repairs.
The detectives would like to get in touch with people who saw a vehicle that matches the description around the time of the incident.
The incident is the second incident involving a mobile speed camera in Victoria recently.
