In Australia, it's easy to hear who's been fined again.
Even ourselves or people around us have more or less been fined.
Recently, an old man has amused his internet friends.
< 7news >: a man in a car, dragging a large garbage can, was issued a huge bill by the police.
A few days ago, a 59-year-old man in New South Wales drove a white car with a large garbage bin behind it.
The scene was strange enough to attract the attention of the police, and the man happened to have parked his car in a place where there was no sign of the parking space.
The police can't spare him now. I went over there and I gave him two orders!
One is that he illegally used an unregistered trailer to drag the garbage bin on the road, and the other is that he parked around.
The point is! The amount of the fine is a bit frightening.
Illegal use of an unregistered trailer fined him $673! Stop the car and punish him for 263 bucks! The man was fined almost $1000 inside and outside!
Later, the new state police also posted the matter on the fb, this one, but amused the vast majority of netizens.
Phill Commodore:, I bet he must have been particularly depressed after he was fined, huh.
Is Troy Black: serious? He probably lived in the basement. He had nothing to drag away the trash can. Let him go.
Shane Richardson:, if that big trash can hit his car, butt, that would be funny, huh.
Ec Beckers: should be glad he drives a car instead of a motorcycle. Ha.
David Dobinson:, that garbage can looks heavier than this car, huh.
David Sheoherd:, I'm so shocked that Alex can drag that big trash can, huh.
Also, why did this man drag the trash bin? The police uncle did not say. But the story is interesting.
But smile to laugh, although we will not always have such a strange, but when it comes to Australia's garbage can, in fact, there are a lot of rules that we do not understand very clearly.
So next, the editor to introduce the garbage can related to the "rules".
Pushing the trash can out is also a fine.
Pushing the dumpster out in advance faces a fine!
In 15 years, the state's lawmakers ordered a "rule" that sparked debate among residents that residents could face a $1500 fine if they put trash cans too early on the road.
How long is the so-called advance?
More than 24 hours!
In other words, if you leave the trash can on the side of the road more than 24 hours in advance, you may get a $1500 ticket.
In fact, this fine is to remind people: garbage can affects the city appearance, do not have to pull out too early, look bad, wait until the garbage collection day to drag the trash can out is not too late.
What you face is a huge fine if you don't pull the trash can home!
Australia's various states pay more attention to the appearance of the city, a beautiful living environment can let residents have a happy mood ~
So, every time the garbage in the trash has been taken away, be sure to remember to take it back in time! Otherwise, a careless face a huge fine!
Queensland set a high fine: $2500!
Yes, you're right, it's $2500! The fine is mainly for those who do not push the trash bin home for a long time, such as those who do not push it home for more than 24 hours or nearly a week.
But the state's fines are relatively low. The state of Victoria is fined only $100 compared to the state of Queensland.
The new state does not necessarily impose fines on this point, or depends on how the heads of the communities decide.
However, in order not to be penalized, remember to push the trash can home in time!
What do you know about garbage classification?
When a lot of people first come to Australia, there are times when they are distressed by garbage classification. As a matter of fact, it has been reported that even many Australians do not really know how to classify the rubbish.

Information on the placement of garbage cans
In order to make it easier for garbage trucks to collect garbage, it is best to place the trash can in the following ways:
-put it in front of your house, but close to the side of the road.
-the trash can opens to the side of the road, and the wheel faces its own house side.
-it's better to be about a meter apart between the two bins.
-Don't put the trash can next to the tree or next to the obstacle, and it's better to be about a meter away from the car by the side of the road.
-make sure the lid of the trash can is covered, not overflowed
Illegal dumping can cost a house.
In Australia, littering casually can be fined, and some illegal dumping can even face huge fines!
No matter in the road or in the remote path, do not throw rubbish at will, because it is very likely that there is a surveillance camera watching you!
And if you're caught dumping garbage illegally, you'll be fined up to A $1 million! This is almost the price of a house.
So, don't try to challenge government's bottom line!
After reading today's content, the editor no longer dared to litter casually, sorting the rubbish well, throwing it in a designated place, is the protection of their wallets all the way!
