Default ACA - On the QLD'er who didn't keep left

24 August 06 episode.

An arrogant redneck bearing video camera (scare scare) and to quote 'severe depression', is pulled up by a young motorcycle officer, the initial offence was one of not keeping left, but resulted in his arrest . . .

THE only thing that stuck in my mind is the infringment penalty issued for "not keeping left, multi-lane" is only $45?????

Did I hear this right you QLD folks?

You see, I am normally involved with NSW legislative advocacy in relation to fine levels, but for this offence, as it applies in QLD - is not something I normally keep that close an eye on. It is something I'll take up though through channels next week, to further the cause of behaviour and improved lane discipline.

In NSW we'll land you three demerit points and a fine of $300+/-.
