AutoExec Summary
NSW Police has issued a warning to motorists who fail to follow the road rule of staying out of the right lane unless overtaking, stating that they could face massive fines. The Highway Patrol received online praise for enforcing this rule, with one driver being fined $410 and two demerit points for disobeying a ‘keep left unless overtaking’ sign. The rule applies to roads with speed limits of 80km/h or above, and fines can reach up to $2200 for failing to keep left. Police have conducted blitzes in the past to crack down on drivers who ignore this rule, receiving support from the public for their actions.
