The Vicroads site does not mention the advertised new rule about smoking!
As of Jan 1 2010 you cannot smoke in a motor vehicle that contains any person under the age of 18.
Penalty between 2 hundred odd and 5 hundred odd :shock: WTF
Is the fine dependant on the brand or nicotine content :lol:

What if the person under the age of 18 is the one smoking!? Do they get fined for smoking in a car with themselves in the car?

Why not? Can you not get a provisional licence from the age of 17 that permits you drive on your own, or have now changed the rules.

VIC truly are the nanny state.

Nanny state indeed.
[rant begins now]
You must be at least 8yo and pay Vicroads $120 before you can remove your training wheels.
I have little doubt our government would take childrens money (or their parents) if they thought they could get away with it or a powerful and out of touch individual/group(s) decided that it is a good idea.
Four hundred and something dollars for transfer fees is a joke.
What is a transfer fee for?
Changing the name of a computer system?
Is that $4xx for 5mins of data entry and filing?
If it is going to be used to used for something else, tell us!
King Nicholas. Keeping it unreal.
