Description

Double demerits for certain road offenses will be in effect during the Christmas holidays in New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory, and Western Australia. Offenses like speeding, using a mobile phone, and not wearing a seatbelt will result in double demerits. Western Australias double demerit period starts earlier and includes additional offenses. Queensland enforces double demerits year-round for repeat offenders. Victoria, South Australia, Northern Territory, and Tasmania do not have double demerit systems. Always be aware of the rules that apply to your license, regardless of your location.
