Double points off Easter holiday, and within a day, more than 6300 Sydney people were fined to cry

The first day of Easter short holiday is also the second day of the new state traffic police department's hard crackdown.

It is understood that in a day, a total of 6300 drivers received tickets, of which about 1360 were speeding tickets.

A total of 48000 exhalation tests were conducted on the roadside and 25 people were charged.

Among drunk drivers, 1/3 are 50 to 59, and 20 percent are between 20 and 29.

Among them, just yesterday, an unlicensed driver and smoking drug driver in order to avoid inspection, bravely broke through the police roadside random checkpoint.

The 35-year-old man was driving a four-wheel-drive vehicle through a checkpoint in Sydney's southwest district. Instead of slowing down, the 35-year-old accelerated as he saw police stop and sign him to stop for inspection.

When the police finally arrested him, the man's breath alcohol test was positive, and one of the drug results was positive for methamphetamine.

As a result, the man was charged with a number of charges, including driving without a license, carrying stolen goods, refusing to accept police parking checks, and so on.

Assistant Police Commissioner Michael Corboy said: "We will never tolerate drivers driving where they are likely to threaten the lives of others."

They say there will be a corresponding increase in the number of police officers on the road during the Easter short holiday as the number of motorists increases.

It is mainly aimed at drivers who have dangerous driving behaviors, including the act of picking up mobile phones.

In addition, the double-point policy will continue until 12:00 on Monday night.

It is reported that the frequency of road traffic accidents will increase during holidays, and the number of people injured or killed in traffic accidents will increase by nearly 10%.

As a result, New York Highway, Shipping, and Freight Secretary Melinda Pavey reminded all motor vehicle drivers, especially those who plan to leave town on holiday, to drive carefully and control speed.

"during the past five years of Easter holidays, 69 percent of fatal cases and 52 percent of serious disability cases occurred outside the city."

Among them, during the Easter holiday in 2017, speeding is the main cause of death. Fatigue driving also killed 75 people, and most of these accidents occurred in rural areas.
