Wow... best thing to come from Vicroads in at least 20 years

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 WTF
Is the fine dependant on the brand or nicotine content

Bummer...





...does it matter what you're smoking?

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.

Nick

VIC truly are the nanny state.

Nick

You can get Learners at 16 but not P plates until 18

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!

you forgot parents will soon need a cert 4 in child rearing and traffic management before being allowed to put their kids bum on a bike (of any kind)...........now what's that course worth and any fines that can be attached to non-compliance of same..............CA CHING
