Since midnight Wednesday until midnight Monday.

And don't forget in Queensland it's double demerit points for the rest of the year.

I have six points already in three months!! Mind you, I still think it was my husband driving my car, but he denies all knowledge!

I agree.....idiots speed! I'm always so careful usually!? Not sure what happened. I have noticed though that some roads have different speed limits at certain times of the day.

I'm not going out in the car until Tuesday just to be safe!

I only speed when they build a long straight road where the speed limit changes from 80Kmh to 60 Kmh to 70 Kmh back to 60 Kmh up to 80 Kmh and then finally 50 Kmh, oh and then back to 60 Kmh, all in the space of a 5 kilometre road.

And its a favourite place for the police to put a speedo at the bottom of a hill where the speed limit changes from 80 to 60. But only when they need donuts....

They're definately worse than in England.

I did the same thing in England before I came and got a warning on my car that if I did it again I'd be fined, much fairer in my opinion.

I got fined $50 for paking against the flow of the traffic in a dead end road, I had no idea this was illegal as I have yet to see a sign stating this

I've never seen a sign saying that up here but they make it clear in the road rules book.

I've never seen one, neither was I asked to read one by anyone.
