Double demerits this long weekend
MOTORISTS are urged to take care on the road this October long weekend.
Police will be out of force across NSW during the double demerits period.
The period began on Friday morning and will continue until midnight Monday, October 3.
Double demerit points will apply on speeding and seatbelt offences, mobile phone use while driving, driving with passengers in a part of the vehicle not designed to carry them and riding a motorcycle without a helmet, among other Schedule 1 offences.
Extra traffic is expected on major routes across NSW over the next few days as families head to popular holiday destinations.
