Amid confusion around travel restrictions during Lockdown Two, authorities in NSW have reminded motorists that
driving to the snow from Greater Sydney, Wollongong, Central Coast and the Blue Mountains is not permitted.
NSW Police have also demonstrated they are still out in force on the roads, highlighting at least one instance in which a driver was stopped for excessive speeding, lost his licence for six months – and then handed a
$1000 fine on top of the speeding ticket because he was not travelling for a reason listed in the health orders.
A statement issued on the NSW Police Traffic and Highways Patrol Facebook page said: “Anyone residing or has been in the Greater Sydney area including Blue Mountains, Central Coast, Wollongong and Shellharbour on or after 21 June can only leave home for essential reasons.
