So you loose 3 points for having mud on your number plate on the way
home from a day trip...
You loose 3 points for having your elbow resting on your window.
Holey crap, don't accidentally turn in the wrong driveway at the KFC
carpark, 3 points.
What about your HF antenna that's on your bullbar as you drive accross from WA on your holiday. It's leagal where I come from, but nope, 3 points.
Wow, they are really out to save lives with these changes...

3 points for the HF antenna, but they're not as concerned with
parking on a railway crossing (1 point). But hey, I figure those who do that and have the worst occur are doing the gene
pool a favour anyway.

3 points for a HF antenna on your bull bar. Jeez...
I just bought an 80 series on the weeknd up here in sunny qld. It has a HF antenna on the bullbar.
Is that illegal in QLD????
I guess I won't be driving down to
tweed heads any time soon then.

Yep those Hf aerial’s are a lot more dangerous than they look
The people who dream up these law’s need to be taken out into a field and shot, Mud on a number plate 3 point’s get real what a bunch of pin head’s.

dirty # plate has always been a bust...
they even go to dirty lights down here in Melb, if they are dirty and not clearly visible - Gawn!
Always clean them before hitting tar on the way
home from bush.

"Driving with part of body outside of vehicle driver or passenger)"
How about driving with part of body inside passenger? Surely a much more dangerous practice.
"Driving on a path, nature strip or traffic island" Bastard - one of the advantages of a 4WD is that you can drive "off road".
At least they have included failing to keep left on a multilane road, but do you reckon the porkers will enforce that one?
"Driving with an obscured or illegible number plate light vehicle)" now that along with radar detectors are truly dangerous practices - yeah, they might not be able to get revenue off you.
