INDICATING OFF ROUNDABOUTS:
One of my students recently informed me that she was told by an instructor from Sydney (who visits the Cowra area), that she doesn’t have to indicate when exiting roundabouts. I have since spoken with that instructor and informed him that that is definitely NOT the case!
REG 118 of the Australian Road Rules (ARRs) states quite clearly that you must indicate when exiting a roundabout (whether single or dual lane) unless it’s not practical to do so. The fact that she was indicating at the time of that lesson proves that it was practical. Also, just because some Police may turn a blind eye to that offence doesn’t mean that you still don’t have to comply with Reg 118.
I’m quite sure that instructor isn’t going to pay the fine if she was detected committing that offence.
SO, if any Learners or parents wish to clarify the laws or ‘rumours’ that they may hear pertaining to licence testing or the road rules, please feel free to contact me.
Safe motoring!!
Scott.

Random breath testing leads to finding 4 unrestrained children in Merrylands West.
About 10:35am on Sunday 11 September 2022, police from Cumberland Highway Patrol were conducting stationary breath testing on Merrylands Road, Merrylands West. A black Porsche was stopped at the site and the 38 year old male driver from Merrylands West was spoken to. Upon inspection of the other occupants, police found 4 children, two aged 8 years old, one aged 9 and the fourth child aged 13 years, in the rear seat. Not only were there only 3 seatbelts available for the 4 children, police found none of the children to be wearing a seatbelt, with one child seated on another child’s lap.
The driver was issued with 4 infringement notices for having a child over the age of 7 but under 16 years of age not restrained as prescribed. Each infringement carries a $362 fine and 3 demerit points.
Police are urging all motorists to ensure your children are restrained correctly at all times.
