Just a warning to the NSW folks out there.
Double Demerits start tonight (they didnt advertise it very well this time) and go through to midnight Monday, so take it easy. The boys in blue have already set up camp on the F3 with the hairdryers and remember speeding equals at least 6 points over easter :(. Just a heads up.

Fantastic, thanks for the heads up. I have to brave the F3 on Sunday. I am so not looking forward to it.

I was told last night that the double demerit points thing started in Qld last Friday at midnight...
I dont know how true it is though *Drive safely everyone (no speeding, means no tickets, means no bloody money for Howard and his mates to party with)

I think he should have been put off the road for a Year, because the copper caught him at 121k's and he was attempting to go even harder later down the road. |

Geez and we in the west complain about demerits etc
1-9km over and you get $50 no points 10-19km over and you get $100 and 1 point (2 over double demerit weekends) Seems we have it pretty good in contrast with the east |
