Some of the offences for which fines will fall - from $233 to $175 - include:
Certain right hand turn offences
Beginning U turn without view of approaching traffic or when driver could obstruct traffic, and
Proceeding past hand-held stop sign while sign shown or contrary to directions.
The offences attracting the biggest rises in fines include:
Not obeying direction of police/authorised person (from $50 to $225).
Various unsafe towing offences (from $74 to $300).
Using a vehicle with a misleading, altered or obscured plate (from $78 to $300).
“Wherever possible, similar types of offences have been grouped together and - in the future - any new offences will be at one of these 15 levels,” Mr Scully said.
“To ensure consistency in penalties, reductions in demerit points for many offences will be implemented including certain roundabout offences, not stopping at hand-held stop signs, not keeping left of a dividing lane, and not driving within a marked lane.
