Family stoush fuels $350 fine for Monkland mother

Premium Content Subscriber only What was a $60 petrol bill has instead cost a Monkland mother more than five times that amount after she failed to pay for the fuel before driving off.

The 45-year-old then got back in her car and drove away instead of paying. Magistrate Graham Hillan accepted Platten’s guilty plea to a charge of unauthorised dealing with shop goods, but chided her for the “silly” mistake of not going back to the station and paying for the petrol once she realised what she had done.
