How many demerit points for that offence over there? Even before he tries for a licence. Idjits!
AT RESTThe woman's excuse was the kid nagged her, I say bad parenting too scared to enforce the no" word like many new age parents that don't seem to be able to do these days
Child driver in Mooroopna
Saturday, 29 December 2018 04:47
A 13-year-old will have to cough up some of his pocket money after being caught driving in Mooroopna last night.
Police intercepted the car on Echuca Road about 7.15pm for a random breath test and were shocked to find the boy behind the wheel with a female adult passenger accompanying him.
When police asked the woman why the young lad was allowed to drive the car she simply stated “He wanted to drive and I didn’t want to listen to the nagging”.
The boy was issued with a ticked for unlicensed driving.
This intercept was part of the state-wide Operation Roadwise, which sees police out in force to target drink and drug driving, speed, distraction, fatigue and failure to wear restraints.
Operation Roadwise will run from 14 December to 6 January, and will focus on enforcement and improving driver behaviour.
Police will be out in force to target the five leading causes of death and serious injury on our roads – speed, impairment, distraction, not wearing seatbelts and fatigue.

Surprised that they could issue him an instant fine, unless they meant he is getting summons to the youth court, as would be the case in SA, or was up until a few years ago at least, in SA no one under 16 can get an infringement notice, must be diverted to youth court.

Er, I might have driven on roads way before I had a licence
sometimes with dad,
sometimes without dad, I’m so glad he didn’t find about the times a drove without him
Although I was probably closer to 15 than 13

SubscriberThe kid shouldn't be fine, the mother is meant to be responsible for him.

This sounds about right, 13 is a good age to start driving, that's when my older brother first let me drive his car. Just not on a major road.

SupporterMost kids in their early teen drive on farms and stations But driving on a public road is another matter entirely.
Both the Mother and the kid should have to face a magistrate for this.
