Double Demerits and Darker Nights

By che 24 March 2005 2

For those that haven’t realised Double Demerit points are being applied to speeding and seat belt offences from midnight last night to I believe midnight Monday night (can anyone confirm this please) taken from this ABC story.

On another note of public announcements I’m told that daylight savings ends this weekend sometime early on Sunday morning. So an extra hour of sleeping in?
