Drivers caught using their phones during a double demerit period will be hit with a $410.00-$423.00 fine and 10 demerits. (more if in school zones)

The demerit point system provides an incentive for drivers to improve their driving behaviour, obey road rules and comply with NSW traffic laws.

Double demerit periods are advertised to ensure community awareness of long weekend periods during which double demerit penalties apply.

Awareness campaigns are coordinated with traditional enforcement and increased police numbers.
