Hidden Road Rule Costs Aussie Drivers Thousands: Are You at Risk?

A little-known Australian road rule is catching drivers off guard, resulting in thousands of dollars in fines. The rule, which targets obscured number plates, is causing controversy due to its disproportionate impact on those living in regional areas where dirt roads are common. Lawyer Avinash Singh told Yahoo News Australia that the maximum penalty in NSW is \$2,200, while in Queensland, it's a staggering \$6,452. "It is particularly common for those who drive off-road or reside in regional areas where they are required to use dirt roads regularly. In practice, the rule unfairly targets those drivers," said Singh. The video highlights the issue and calls for awareness among drivers.
