Pub test today. Finding the driver does it passed the
pub Test?

Speaker 3 (00:07):
I was talking to a driver who said he had
a passenger from the.

Speaker 4 (00:10):
Airport who took the seat belt was still on, but
they weren't wearing it over their shoulder. They put it
underneath their arms. So all intents and purposes, the driver,
as you said earlier, the car is not making that
binging noise. The seat belts clicked in. Yeah, the driver
got fined.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
And she was a large lady so he couldn't actually see.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
No but he got fined three points and about five hundred.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
We can contest these things though. You can write to
the mbody.

Speaker 5 (00:37):
He tried to heed nothing, and he also contacted her
and she said I was She actually said.

Speaker 6 (00:44):
I was watching RBT and there was a young fellow
driving past an RBT and his mate leaned over.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
And on his horn and two to the coppers.

Speaker 6 (00:53):

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Oh absolutely, the driver is responsible for everything. If the
tires don't have air, and then if the car doesn't
have fuel, if the passengers don't have their seatbelts, yes
they're responsible. You are driving a very dangerous vehicle.

Speaker 7 (01:21):
No it doesn't because the same thing happened to me
about a month and a half ago. Got the time
through the post for four hundred and ten dollars and
I lost three points off my lives because one of
my passengers wasn't wearing a seatbelt correctly. And it definitely
doesn't pass the pub test.
