NSW, ACT & WA Holiday penalties
« 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."

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

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

You can call me Steve, with apologies to Paul Simon.
