How professional !
Last month Hume Police pulled over a vehicle that
was detected going 22 km/h over on the limit on the
Tullamarine Freeway. The driver claimed he was a ride-
share driver and had a passenger on-board.
The vehicle was not displaying correct signage - either
CPV sign or ride-share company sign - and the Police
gave him a warning (and a fine for speeding).
Some time later the driver was stopped again.
Still no signage - so he quickly made one - beautiful,
isn't it? And the driver placed it on the dash behind
the Parking Permit for Disabled - wrong location - it is
partially hidden and is within reach of the driver.
But wait, there's more!
The car in question is not registered with the CPVV as a
commercial passenger vehicle. That’s a $2000 fine.
It makes you wonder if the Disability Parking Permit is
valid?
