Title: NSW, ACT & WA Holiday penalties
Post by: Biggles on December 21, 2018, 09:39:30 AM

Double demerits are in for youse guys until New Years Day.

Also, make sure ALL your NSW pillions have their helmets on:

"Motorbike riders caught without a helmet will also face six points and a $337 fine, or a massive 18 points and a $1757 fine if a rider is caught with four or more unhelmeted passengers."

If the rider is carrying four or more passengers he probably deserves the penalty regardless of their head coverings  8)
